Parent and Family Giving Programs
With Trinity’s mission and set of values that place the student experience at its core, Parent and Family Giving Programs provide a pathway to family involvement and philanthropic support.
Every gift, at every level, becomes part of the support system for Trinity scholars.
Every dollar raised is used to support Trinity's tradition of excellence through investment in our students and their unique Trinity experiences—from research with professors to conference travel to service learning projects to studying abroad and everything in between.
The Chapman Family Circle
The Chapman Family Circle recognizes Trinity families who pledge a minimum of $50,000, payable over four years, to fund the experiences of current and future Tigers by supporting an area on campus of their choice. The giving society honors the Chapman family, who has supported Trinity since it opened its doors in Tehuacana, Texas.
Parent Volunteer Programs
Make a difference in the lives of current students and alumni through active and exciting engagement with the University. Trinity parents are extremely generous with their time. Some get involved in their local area through the admissions office and others help with Trinity gatherings in their home or workplace.
Parent Council
As a member of Trinity's Parent Council, you make a difference in the education your student receives, while building a strong community among Trinity families.
Engage
Through this partnership, Parent Council members engage in conversation and learning opportunities with campus leadership and decision-makers.
Volunteer
Volunteering on the Council is a meaningful way to remain engaged with the University, providing your insight from a parent perspective, helping to promote professional networking and internships for our students, and providing support through annual gifts. These opportunities include representing Trinity University at a college fair in your local community, assisting with or hosting events in your home, sending thank you notes to donors, helping to create family programming, and much more.
The Family Giving Pathway
Trinity parents and families support the University in ways that are meaningful for their student and their students’ peers. Families have found that an organized approach to philanthropy helps maximize impact.
This pathway illustrates a thoughtful way to structure your giving in support of Trinity University students:
