Family Fund
For West Chester University
A better community life at WCU means more engaged students – and a stronger shared experience. That’s why every year, the families of hundreds of current students come together through the Family Fund to enrich the University lifestyle. They go above and beyond to make WCU more memorable – and more meaningful – for every Ram.

Fund Their Future
Over the last five years, WCU families have donated more than $206,600 to make important resources and initiatives available to all students.
Giving Back, Kicking Back
You can help bring Rams together with events that encourage safe, free, fun – like home football game tailgates and Family Weekend.
Reinvigorating Our Rams
Feeling welcome is critical to success — which is why donors back speakers for student-athlete mental health, and support for students who participate in WCU’s Alternative Spring Break.
Support Beyond Campus
Your gift can connect students to professional resources in the greater West Chester community — including resume-building advice and job search skills for students in diversity and inclusion initiatives.
Make a Gift to the Family Fund
Academics and athletics are only a small part of what makes West Chester University great. Invest in current students today by making their WCU experience extraordinary.
It Takes a Village
In the past, this program was called the Parents Fund. Today, we recognize parents, relatives, guardians, and friends – all of whom are stepping forward to enhance and enrich life for WCU students.
