UAF College of Rural and Community Development

Your help is needed more than ever to ensure CRCD students have what they need to reach their goals. Make a difference today by donating to one of these crucial areas:


 

The Troth Yeddha’ Indigenous Studies Center will serve as a central Alaska Native gathering place with classes, services and activities as a breathtaking tribute that affirms Alaska Native culture and contributions across Alaska.

 

With growing enrollment of Indigenous students and a history steeped in culture, the Troth Yeddha’ Indigenous Studies Center champions a path forward to honor Alaska’s First Peoples, to meet the current and future campus demands and to prepare the University for academic growth. Timing is crucial as we respond to demand in areas such as the revitalization of Indigenous languages, restoration of cultural knowledge, community healing, and centering Indigenous knowledge.

 

 

College of Rural and Community Development provides academic and vocational education and outreach to campuses serving an area nearly two-thirds of the state and representing more than 160 Alaska Native communities.

 


Rural Alaska Honors Institute At RAHI, rural and Alaska Native high school students from across the state live, study, and play on the UAF Troth Yeddha' campus for six summer weeks. While here, they experience life as a university student, develop college success skills, and earn college credit. Gifts to this fund help us offer this 40+ year-old program at no charge.
