Student Scholarships
Need-based grants and service scholarships that open NIGA to talented students regardless of means.
Support NIGA
Invest in a generation of public servants.
A gift to NIGA in its founding years helps build a university — its scholarships, its faculty, its research, and its campuses.
Why Give
A gift with a founding effect.
NIGA University was founded on a wager: that Nicaragua and Central America will be stronger for having an institution dedicated to the formation of principled public servants. Philanthropy makes that wager possible. Gifts to NIGA — at every size — fund the scholarships, the faculty, the research, and the facilities that a new university needs to fulfill its charter.
Because NIGA is in its founding years, each gift has a founding effect. It does not maintain an institution already built; it helps to build one. Donors to the University in this period are, in a real sense, among its founders.
