The University is grateful for the contributions of its donors throughout more than 70 years of history.

The University of Navarra wanted to acknowledge the contributions of donors, individuals, institutions and companies that, over more than 70 years of history, have helped to promote the projects of the academic center and thus favor its mission statement.

A totem has been placed next to the entrance of Central Building to thank all these contributions. The event was attended by numerous professionals from the academic center and donors. 

"Donations give us the freedom we need to do research, to recruit talent, to reach more young people. Thanks to the contributions of so many friends, we are able to attract and retain the best students, researchers, faculty and professionals. This talent is the engine that drives our university forward," said the University of Navarra's president , María Iraburu. 

He also recalled that the University of Navarra is a non-profit institution and through donations it is possible to develop projects at research, build new facilities or allocate more funds for scholarships. 

"Today, many University professionals have gathered with a single motive: to express our gratitude to those who have gone before us. People who, with their generosity, vision and effort, have established the instructions upon which we continue to build more than 70 years later. And we are deeply grateful to the donors, present and future, whose partnership makes it possible for the University to leave a mark on society. Our growth and sustainability depends on more and more people trusting in the University and supporting us with their generosity," concluded president. 

At present, 7,732 donors support the University's various projects. In the past academic year 2022-23, 24.8 million euros from donations were allocated to development for initiatives such as the Alumni Scholarships program, research projects or the construction of the BIOMA Center.
