Each year, Friends of APU brings together alumni, supporters, and community leaders to celebrate the people whose generosity and service have helped shape Alaska Pacific University. The event honors an outstanding member of the APU Denali Society whose leadership, philanthropy, and dedication have made a lasting impact on both the university and the broader community. More than a celebration, Friends of APU is an opportunity to recognize the power of giving, strengthen connections, and inspire continued investment in APU’s mission of providing transformative, accessible education for future generations.

The Blue & Gold Benefit Auction is one of Alaska Pacific University’s most impactful fundraising events, bringing together alumni, friends, and community partners for an evening of generosity and celebration.

Every bid and every gift supports the APU Foundation and student scholarships, helping remove financial barriers so more students can access the transformative, hands-on education that defines the APU experience.
