Join the Office of Parent Engagement & Philanthropy for this year’s 6th Annual Parents & Family Challenge from Wednesday, Oct. 18 through Tuesday, Oct. 24. During this six-day challenge, when 600 parents make a gift of any size, $100,000 in Challenge funds will be unlocked. These funds, sponsored by the Parents Leadership Council, will benefit every aspect of a Fairfield education – from academic enrichment to student life and wellness initiatives, from financial support to spiritual and service activities, athletics to the arts. As an additional gift, the class with the most donors will win special surprise treats provided by the Office of Parent Engagement & Philanthropy.

The involvement of Fairfield parents and families helps empower the University to continue to provide a well-rounded educational experience for all students within the Stag community. Through donor support, the University continues its mission of educating men and women for others in the classroom, on campus, and beyond. The Parents & Family Challenge provides the opportunity for parents and families to make an impact on the lives of all students and all aspects of the Fairfield experience.

During last year’s Challenge, the goal of 555 donors was surpassed when more than 600 Fairfield parents participated, unlocking all Challenge funds in support of the University’s and our students’ most urgent needs. These results embody the trust Fairfield parents and families have in Fairfield University’s values and mission while helping students on their journeys to make the world a better place after graduation.

The Fairfield community’s generosity and support are essential to creating and supporting the excellence of a Fairfield University education.
