Philanthropic support invigorates campus life, enhancing the experiences, programs and opportunities available to all Blue Hens. Financially supporting the Parents Fund offers parents and families a meaningful way to influence and shape the UD student experience—not just for their own student, but for the entire student body of Blue Hens.

 

The Parents Fund provides the Division of Student Life with valuable resources to support its mission of creating an unparalleled student experience.

Creating an Unparalleled Student Experience

Your contribution to the Parents Fund will:

  • Expand career development, engagement and leadership opportunities 
  • Access mental health and wellbeing resources 
  • Secure resources for basic needs and student support 
  • Provide resources for community-building 

Your support will not only enrich students' time on campus but will also offer thousands of unique opportunities for them to discover their identities and passions, manage their wellbeing and engage with diverse communities. This empowers them to grow into successful individuals prepared for a lifetime of achievement and impact.

“I can't name a better space on campus to work, study and unwind. I’d like to thank the donors who supported the Wellbeing Center for helping to create a safe space for students whether they are seeking services, needing meeting space or attending a program to learn about wellness. There is always something going on in the center, and everyone is welcome!

-Kendall Ludwig, AS24, Student Wellbeing Ambassador
