Make a difference with your contribution

Cornell CALS School of Integrative Plant Science is empowering students from diverse backgrounds to meet some of the world's most pressing challenges, from food security in the face of climate change to biodiversity loss to enhancing human health and well-being through plants. 

Help us support the international experiences, plant growth facilities, and research training that provide our students with the hands-on experience to make a difference in the world!

International experiences can be life changing. Whether learning about plant communities in Central America, agriculture in South Asia, or rare plants in Patagonia, your contributions can provide our students with a real-world perspective on global challenges.
