Parents Fund
Parents of current students can become more closely involved with the University by participating in The Parents Fund, a component of the University’s annual giving program. Contributions to The Parents Fund are designated to the Douglas and Judith Krupp Library Fund. Support from The Parents Fund helps to provide:
- A dynamic learning environment merging traditional library services with extraordinary technologies
- Access to more than 150,000 items, including 20,000-plus print and electronic journal subscriptions and databases
- Access to career information including databases that provide company information students can use to learn about potential employers
Parents Council
The Parents Council is a leadership group of Bryant parents and families who strengthen the University through annual gifts of $1,000 or more (including corporate matching funds). In 2011, the 49 members of the Parents Council raised more than $104,000.
Leadership giving
Leadership gifts of $1,000 or more to the Parents Fund qualifies parents for the following:
- Recognition in Bryant’s Honor Roll of Donors
- Special invitations to campus receptions and events, including our Annual Champions for Philanthropy Gala and Parents Council Breakfast
- A customized bookplate on the inside cover of a book in the Douglas and Judith Krupp Library bearing the name of your child, or your family name, along with a facsimile for you as a special thank you
As members of a Bryant leadership group, Parents Council members also have the opportunity to engage in the following ways:
- Serve as representatives of the Parents Council at Regional Alumni Network events
- Attend or host receptions for prospective or admitted students
