Parent Giving
We consider gifts from parents a tremendous compliment, as we are keenly aware of the investment you've already made in Stetson through tuition! It is our goal that your son or daughter's educational experience is so impactful you'll want to make Stetson one of your top philanthropies. Please consider giving a gift in any amount, as strong parent giving demonstrates a belief in the transformative experience we facilitate both inside and outside of the classroom.
We welcome you to designate your gift to the area you believe will have the most impact. That might be the Parents Fund (utilized by Stetson's leadership to meet the University's most pressing annual needs), an academic department, scholarships, an athletic team, international learning, student research, faculty professional development, campus life, leadership development or other areas your son or daughter feels connected to.
Parents who give an annual gift of $2,500 or more are members of the Parents Leadership Circle. As an expression of gratitude, President Libby invites these parents and their students to join her for lunch at her home in early spring. Also hosting this event are her husband Richard Libby, Peggy and Jim Davis (Stetson Parent's Association President and Vice President for the Parents Fund), and the DeLand Campus Academic Deans. The highlight of the afternoon will be some of our brightest students presenting their senior research/capstone experiences alongside their faculty mentors. This is a wonderful opportunity for parents in our Leadership Circle to enjoy a casual, intimate afternoon with Stetson's leadership.
