Parent Giving

The UConn Foundation seeks to strengthen parent engagement and enhance the student experience through annual gifts from parents of current students and parents of alumni. Parent giving sends a strong, collective vote of confidence in UConn’s mission and vision.

While your student is at UConn, we ask that you consider making the President’s Excellence Fund one of your top philanthropic priorities. Gifts to the President’s Excellence Fund provide immediate support for University priorities at the discretion of President Maric.

All gifts, no matter the size, enrich life at UConn. Leadership gifts from parents of $2,500 or more during the fiscal year (July 1 – June 30) are especially valuable and grant you membership in the Parent Leadership Society.
