Our Partnerships with the Community

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

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.

Nonprofit Board Fellows

The Board Fellowship Program prepares University of Michigan graduate students for responsible community involvement and practical leadership experience.

Alumni & Giving

Business+Impact can only thrive with support from people like you who believe in our mission and students. Please consider partnering with us on programming that generates valuable social impact.

Resources for Local Businesses & Nonprofits

The Ross School of Business and partners around University of Michigan engage organizations in southeast Michigan to advance their strategic priorities and support the local small business and nonprofit community. Below are some featured resources from our partners around campus.

Poverty Solutions

The University of Michigan has a proud tradition of groundbreaking research and teaching on poverty and inequality. A growing network of top experts have made pivotal contributions to knowledge and policymaking in the field of poverty dating back to the 1950s.

Are you part of a social venture in the region, or working with a nonprofit? We want to know about you! You could enable students to deliver social impact in multidisciplinary and cross-sector settings — and in the process, your organization could benefit from the expertise of students with experience in business, public policy, social work, and more!
