The Carroll Fund

John Carroll University Family Fellows 

At John Carroll University, your student experiences a world of academic rigor, personal growth, and challenges, and a wide range of opportunities that will help them grow as "a man or woman for and with others." We invite you to join the John Carroll University Family Fellows and accompany them on the journey. 

By joining the John Carroll University Family Fellows program you are investing further in John Carroll University. Your membership supports academic success and the student experience of every JCU student. Lastly, your membership provides you an opportunity to experience the university from a special perspective by connecting you with other parents and providing you opportunities to engage with faculty and staff.

The Family Fellows program offers two levels of involvement and participation:

• Parent's Leadership Council: Annual gift of $5,000 or more
• Parent's Fund Committee: Annual gift of $1,000 or more

For more information, please contact Andre Calabretta, Interim Assistant Vice President of Development at acalabretta@jcu.edu.

Faculty and Staff Giving

There are many opportunities available on campus for faculty and staff — lectures, mission leave, employee resource groups, staff socials, just to name a few. An additional way to support the campus community is by making a gift to John Carroll. No one understands the promise of what happens at John Carroll or the importance of the work completed here better than our dedicated faculty, staff, and administrators. Your gift is an investment in yourself, your colleagues, our students, and the important work John Carroll does to educate men and women for others.

The Carroll Fund is the fund of greatest need at John Carroll University. The most convenient way to support the Carroll Fund and John Carroll is via payroll deduction. Together with the contributions of alumni, parents and friends of John Carroll, your gift makes a significant impact on the students we see on campus every day.
