Diverse and Inclusive Communities
WHEN EVERY MEMBER OF OUR COMMUNITY CAN THRIVE, WE EMPOWER A BETTER WORLD.
Northeastern serves as a model for what we our society can be: dynamic, equipped to confront challenges, community-driven, and powered by experience. We’re building diverse, inclusive communities that enrich and engage with every experience, every challenge, and every solution.
Our efforts to advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are informed by insights and experiences generously shared by students, faculty, staff, alumni, parents, and partners. Together, we seek to make a meaningful impact on individual lives and communities across the globe.
Campaign donors who share these values can choose to direct their support to options that include:
- Asian American Center
- Center for Intercultural Engagement and Social Justice Resource Center
- Center for Spirituality, Dialogue, and Service
- John D. O’Bryant African American Institute
- Latinx Student Cultural Center
- LGBTQA Resource Center

- Women and Entrepreneurship Programs
“This campaign will allow us to dramatically expand opportunities for the Northeastern community to promote justice, build relationships between groups and individuals, facilitate inclusivity, and educate across difference.”

Expanding Opportunities in Tech
Northeastern’s Align graduate program focuses on closing the diversity gap in tech by giving students the ability to earn a master’s degree in computer science. With the help of scholarship funding from Pivotal Ventures, the executive office of Melinda French Gates, it’s able to do just that.
Building Solutions for Social Justice and Equity
The late Nonnie Burnes, L’78, H’07, was a steadfast champion of social justice and equity, and she understood the importance of leaving a lasting positive impact on the world. Her deep connection to Northeastern inspired her and her family to fund the Burnes Center for Social Change.
