Donate to the Pride Alumni Network at FSU

Donate To Our Endowment Fund

We invite you to make a lasting impact by donating to the Endowment Fund, managed by the FSU Foundation. Endowed gifts are used exclusively to provide scholarships to students at FSU. Your generous contribution will generate ongoing income, allowing us to sustain vital scholarship support for years to come. It's a powerful way to create a lasting legacy that continues to make a difference.

 

Through the Pride Alumni Network at FSU Endowment Fund, you play a pivotal role in fostering a sustainable future for students at FSU.

Donate To Our Annual Operating Fund

Held with the FSU Alumni Association, our Annual Operating Fund is the source for all of the network's expenses and receives any gift not specifically designated for the endowment. Your donation plays a crucial role in sustaining our year-round events and programming that celebrate and empower our LGBTQ+ community. By contributing to our fund, you help us create more opportunities for engagement, networking, and mentorship among alumni and students. Joining our network is always free, and donations of any kind are entirely voluntary.

"As a first-generation, low-income student, this award means more to me than I can fully express. It lifts a tremendous financial burden and allows me to focus more on my education, clinical preparation, and personal growth without the constant worry of how I will afford my academic expenses. Your generosity has given me the chance to fully engage in my nursing journey and continue moving toward the future I’ve worked so hard to build… Nursing school is demanding, but I truly love what I’m doing... Outside of academics, I enjoy reading, staying active, and connecting with other students, things that sometimes feel impossible when financial stress takes over. Thanks to your support, I can be more present, involved, and confident during this chapter of my life."

How We're Funded

We're a volunteer-led alumni network, supported through:

  • Donations, though joining the network is always free

  • Fundraising campaigns

  • FSU's Great Give and Giving Tuesday participation

  • FSU Alumni Association partnership support

  • Scholarship and endowment development efforts

 

Gifts from Giving Tuesday and FSU's Great Give are typically split between our Endowment and Annual Operating Funds, supporting priorities like book stipends and the Lavender Celebration, with the exact split determined by the Board each year based on the network's greatest needs.
