Bryant University. Giving to Bryant

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.

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.
