Today, hundreds of students and young researchers receive financial support every year thanks to the generosity of our donors. With your help, we can continue to invest in talent, diversity and building a society founded on knowledge, innovation and inclusion.

Being a Donor means much more than supporting the Politecnico di Milano: it means actively participating in the life of the University and believing in its mission. Donors are a fundamental part of the Politecnico community, contributing not only through their financial support but also through their presence and engagement.

Those who choose to donate become involved in the life of the Politecnico through various concrete opportunities: having their name recognized in the Donors’ Hall, participating in institutional events organized by the University and its Foundation, receiving a report measuring the social impact of the supported projects, and meeting the beneficiaries directly, hearing first-hand how their contribution makes a real difference.

In this way, the Donor is not just a supporter but an active part of the Politecnico, helping the growth of students, researchers, and innovative projects, while strengthening the academic community as a whole.

Donating to Politecnico di Milano means supporting scholarships, technological innovation and university projects, with tax benefits provided by law.
