Parent gifts to The Fund for Providence College provide funds that can be used immediately and flexibly, giving the College’s leaders the ability to respond to the needs of today’s students. Taken together, these gifts directly strengthen the College’s current fiscal health and have a powerful impact. Donors to The Fund for Providence College may choose to direct their gifts where they’re needed most, or to emergency student support, varsity athletics, or financial aid.

Parents Leadership Council

Parents Leadership Council (PLC) members serve as ambassadors and fundraisers for Providence College.  Council members are philanthropic leaders of the College and are vital in engaging the parent community.  In addition to leading the efforts of the Parents Fund, members may volunteer their time to support other priorities of the College. Volunteer opportunities may include peer-to-peer solicitation, hosting new student receptions, regional events, or reaching out to incoming families to welcome them to the PC community. ​​ If you are interested in learning more or becoming a member of the Council, please inquire at parentgiving@providence.edu.
