Rochester Parents Fund
Parents can play an active role in the education their children receive. Through their support of the Parents Fund, they make a tangible difference in students' lives. In addition to providing overall support for recruiting and retaining the best faculty, updating learning technology, and improving the campus, the Parents Fund provides the primary funding for special projects.
What size gifts are needed?
Every gift, regardless of size, makes a difference. And when your student calls home to tell you about the concert he recently heard downtown, the campus club he just joined, or the professor whose course has opened his eyes to a new field of study, you will know that you helped to make that possible.
