Brandeis Alumni, Family and Friends
Giving Opportunities
While Brandeis is grateful for every gift, support of the following priorities is especially needed.
Thousands of generous alumni, families and friends support Brandeis, and future generations of Brandeisians, with an annual gift. Their support, and yours, ensures our students have access to a Brandeis education, with the opportunity to learn from a world-class faculty, engage in groundbreaking research and live and grow in a supportive and scholarly environment.
The Brandeis Fund
Help Brandeis students with a gift to The Brandeis Fund.
We remain steadfast in our mission to provide every enrolled student with a world-class Brandeis education and enriching experience.
Unrestricted support through The Brandeis Fund helps us meet the ever-changing needs of the Brandeis community and provides critical financial aid for students in need.
The Parents Fund
When Brandeis parents invest in the university above and beyond tuition, you send a strong message about the superb education that students receive. By making Brandeis a philanthropic priority, you are investing in your own student’s experience on campus and supporting the education of other deserving students. Consider making a gift in honor of your student or one of their favorite professors to provide unrestricted support that will be put to immediate use.

President’s Initiative on Antisemitism

Center for Jewish Life at Brandeis
In a landmark development affirming its founding mission, Brandeis University has announced a major partnership with Hillel at Brandeis to renovate a former administrative building into a new, state-of-the-art Center for Jewish Life. The 28,000-square-foot building will become the permanent home for Hillel, anchoring Jewish life in the heart of campus. This project reinforces the university’s founding mission — to create a university where Jews could thrive, free of discrimination — by centering Jewish belonging.

Professorships, Capital Projects and Endowments
Brandeis' commitment to academic rigor, critical thinking and creating a just world is as strong today as at our founding. Philanthropy helped build this university and remains an important pillar as we recommit to excellence and access in the 21st century.
Gifting to establish endowed professorships, named capital projects or departmental endowments can transform the future of higher education at Brandeis. Your generosity drives innovation through support for our students, faculty and campus community.
