Community

Take an active role in the educational experiences and leadership development of University of Michigan students who seek to make a positive impact.

Business+Impact is built on the foundational belief that diverse views and voices strengthen our ability to affect change. Michigan Ross creates and partners with businesses, nonprofits, social enterprises, and other academic units so our students have profound experiences and see tangible results. Through these collaborations, participants will gain real-world experience, while changemakers will gain a better understanding of core business principles. Your nonprofit could host graduate student board fellows and benefit from the learning of business and public policy students. Your organization could propose projects to be offered in our +Impact Studio, where students work on regional impact projects for credit. If a Ross or Ford student works as an intern for you, we can help defray their salary costs. Finally, if your organization is looking to donate to a program that will have a meaningful impact on the next generation of changemakers, our giving program is tax deductible.
