Parents Fund
One of the hallmarks of Elizabethtown College is an uncommonly enthusiastic and close-knit community of students, faculty, staff, alumni and friends.  Among this group are very passionate parents who have helped to create quite a legacy of positive support and involvement in the E-town experience.  In addition to cheering on the Blue Jays in athletic contests, providing thunderous applause at musical and theatrical events and supporting numerous career-oriented opportunities for Elizabethtown students and alumni, they have also made countless fiscal donations in support of campus initiatives.

In the summer of 2005, Elizabethtown College’s Institutional Advancement division initiated an effort to realize monetary gifts from parents that would support the College’s Annual Fund through the development of a Parents Fund.  This initiative provides an opportunity for parents of current students and alumni to annually support enhancements of resources for current and future Elizabethtown students in their day-to-day lives at the College.

The Parents Fund benefits all students!
