Parents Fund

Every day at Indiana University, something extraordinary happens.

Our students embark on profound, life-changing experiences. They challenge themselves to step outside their comfort zones. They discover their true potential.

IU is committed to providing your child with the richest, most fulfilling experience possible. Supporting the Parents Fund is an opportunity for you to contribute to your child’s success, strengthen your ties to the university, and ensure ongoing excellence at IU. Plus, an annual gift of at least $250 qualifies you for membership in the IU Parents Circle.

Without the Parents Fund Internship Housing Grant, I would not have been able to experience an internship in New York City. I am endlessly appreciative of the help with housing that allowed me to see a gorgeous city and work for a great company.
