For Parents & Families
At Bucknell, we're like a family, bound by the experiences we share and the new discoveries we make together.
You are an important member of the Bucknell family, and we're eager for you to connect with other Bucknell parents, explore our campus, learn alongside your student and join the lifelong community of Bucknellians.
Power Possibility at Bucknell
Support Bucknellians
Each year, annual gifts from alumni, parents and friends strengthen the Bucknell experience and empower students to thrive. They fund scholarships, financial aid and student programs, drive innovation, support hands-on research, and ensure every student has access to the opportunities, mentorship and resources they need to succeed. Each gift makes a difference, and the impact is felt every day on campus.
Make your gift by June 30 to support students this year!
