Fundraising Boards

The College Foundation benefits from a broad community of dedicated alumni and parent volunteers across the country who work tirelessly to raise awareness of the importance of philanthropic support of the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences.

Regional Boards

Each of the College Foundation's eight Regional Boards consists of about two dozen volunteer alumni and parents who concentrate on engaging those connected to the University in their regions, sharing news of the College, hosting events, and making introductions to prospective donors. Occasionally, some Regional Board members also serve on the College Foundation Board of Trustees or the Benefactors Society Board.  Current Regional Boards are located in Atlanta, Dallas, Europe, Greater Washington DC, Houston, New York, Northern California, and Richmond.

Benefactors Society Board

The Benefactors Society Board (BSB) is a national board of the College Foundation that focuses on leadership-level annual giving for Arts & Sciences. The goal of this approximately 40-member board is to grow the Benefactors Society, a recognition club for those who make annual gifts to the College Fund of $2,500 or more. The BSB also encourages participation in the Honor Pledge, a five-year Benefactors-level commitment to the College Fund.
