Parent Fund
The Auburn University Parent Fund was launched in 2026 to provide parents of current and former students an annual giving opportunity which directly contributes to our goal of providing an exceptional student experience. Led by the Student Affairs Development Board, the Parent Fund will support student organizations and initiatives, as well as high priority areas in Student Affairs and across campus. Donations to the Parent Fund can be applied to the Parent Fund Grant Program, the Student Affairs Gift Fund, or to a list of high priority programs and initiatives selected annually by the Student Affairs Development Board and the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs.
Parent Fund Grant Program
This grant program is open to faculty, staff, and student organizations that are seeking financial assistance for programs, projects, or initiatives that improve campus life or the student experience at Auburn. The application process opens in the spring of each semester, with submissions reviewed by members of the Parent Leadership Giving Society in partnership with the Student Affairs Development Board.
Student Affairs Gift Fund
The Student Affairs Gift Fund provides flexible support for the areas of greatest need across Auburn’s Division of Student Affairs. Gifts to this fund give Student Affairs leadership the ability to direct resources where they can make the greatest impact on Auburn students, responding to emerging needs and opportunities that enhance the student experience.
Student Affairs Top Priorities
Gifts to Student Affairs’ top priorities support three areas making a meaningful difference in the lives of Auburn students: Military Affairs, the Campus Food Pantry, and Welcome Home Grants, which help students facing unexpected financial challenges meet essential needs. These programs provide resources and support that help students navigate challenges, build community and thrive throughout their Auburn experience.
