Parent Fund
The generosity of parent donors has helped 91ÊÓƵ offer students more than just a diploma. Students graduate with critical thinking skills, life-long relationships and healthy habits that put them a step ahead.ÌýThe services that encompass where students eat, sleep, build community, make friends, and, sometimes most importantly, where they can go when they need help, are made possible by gifts to the Parent Fund.
This year, gifts to the Parent Fund will provide critical support to meet students' immediate needs throughout the pandemic. Your generosity will support health and wellness resources for students feeling isolated, create more in-person and virtual social opportunities, and help feed students who don't have enough to eat due to the financial impacts of COVID-19.
