Parents - Thank you for your support!

Having a child in college is a significant milestone for any family--a time of pride, excitement, and opportunity. Together students and parents become partners with the university in creating an excellent student experience, one that your child will value forever.

The UW Parents Program provides you with a distinctive opportunity to influence your child's success and enrich your child's education. By making a gift to the UW Parents Program, you can improve the experience of your child--and all undergraduates--at the UW.

Every year thousands of dedicated UW Parents support a "preferred fund"--a special project selected for its impact on the entire student population. You may also direct your gift to your child's school, college or program, providing much-needed funds where they are needed most.

This year the UW Parents Program supports the University Libraries in their effort to create a Collections Endowment. This endowment will provide permanent funds for new acquisitions to all twenty-six libraries in the system. Students conducting research in all areas will directly benefit from the increased ability to acquire new materials.
