Selfless generosity and service are the legacy of Ricks College, and they still form the core values at BYU-Idaho today. Your generous gift helps to keep the Spirit of Ricks alive, and for that, the students, faculty, staff, and administrators of BYU-Idaho are immensely grateful.
It would be impossible to communicate the full effect of your gift to BYU-Idaho, but please take a moment to watch the videos below and get a sense of how you’re changing lives with your donation. On behalf of everyone at the university, thank you for your generosity!
“The Spirit of Ricks, that individualized attention, the lifting, the succoring, the nurturing, was a hallmark of Ricks College. . . .
“It’s not the place, it’s the people in this place who have this distinctive capacity to focus less on self . . . and turn to bless young people so that they can in turn bless many other people for the rest of their lives.”
— Elder David A. Bednar, BYU-Idaho Staff Meeting, January 26, 2016
