Striving for future generations
Philanthropic support is woven into our fabric. It plays a critical role in driving new opportunity, innovation and excellence across education and research at Deakin, and has a real impact across the many communities we serve.
When we opened the doors to the Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus, we became Victoria’s first regional university. Today, our graduates and researchers make a real difference around the world as global leaders, innovators and professionals.
The dKin Difference
The dKin Difference magazine, launched in 2020, is our inaugural donor impact report. This publication highlights the impact our donor community is making at, with and through Deakin.
Whether it’s creating solutions through breakthrough research, supporting the future ambitions of a student on scholarship, or helping translate research outcomes back to the community, we recognise and are exceptionally grateful for this impact that philanthropy continues to have.

Creating opportunities
Providing access to education is in our DNA, with the support of our donors instrumental in helping to create opportunities for students to realise their best potential.
Philanthropy also fuels our researchers’ quest in finding long-term solutions to both local and global challenges. Your support enables real-world impact as we continually progress discovery and innovation to advance society and culture, design smarter technologies, enable a sustainable world, and improve health and wellbeing.
Thank you for your support that contributes to increasing a critical margin of excellence and opportunity at Deakin.
