Parents' Fund Welcome Parents
The Parents' Fund is the vehicle through which parents of current students and parents of alumni contribute to the Annual Fund. These gifts are invested immediately, enabling Fairfield to enhance educational opportunities, student services, career planning, and much more.
As a vital part of the University's Annual Fund - a fundraising effort which runs from July 1 to June 30 of each year - the Parents' Fund has traditionally been an area of strength at Fairfield. The University has been blessed year after year by an active and vibrant parent community, and we welcome you to it.
Gifts to the Parents' Fund demonstrate a parent's vote of confidence in Fairfield and an expression of satisfaction in their son or daughter's undergraduate experience. Our goal this year is to raise $700,000 before June 30. Won't you join us by making your gift online or through the mail today?

When our son John first started at Fairfield in fall 2006, we felt welcomed as a family. John decided to come to Fairfield because of the small class size, proximity to home and its spiritual focus. As parents sending our oldest off to college, we felt reassured that our son was in a great place where he could grow personally, yet be supported by faculty and staff when needed. When we make a gift to the Parents' Annual Fund, we know that it is being put to use right away to provide the services, programs and resources that set Fairfield apart and provide a direct benefit for our son. We choose to give because we know that tuition alone does not cover the true cost of a Fairfield education. This year, after seeing the difference Fairfield has made in John so far and learning more about all the University has to offer, we decided to increase our giving. We understand just how much goes into sustaining and moving a school forward, so we make it a priority to support Fairfield.
