A gift to CDU’s Area of Greatest Need fund will assist the University to address critical priorities and respond confidently to new challenges and opportunities.
Gifts to "areas of greatest need" influence CDU life in many ways. They provided CDU with the flexibility to quickly address student projects and initiatives, the financial needs of students, unforeseen challenges, and new opportunities to strengthen the student experience.

Support student scholarships and experience
At CDU we believe that education is for everyone. You can give a helping hand to a high-achieving student who couldn't otherwise attend university because of disadvantage, distance or disability.
You can also help enhance the student experience by supporting student initiatives and programs. At CDU, we value educational experiences that extend beyond the lecture theatre.
