About Parent Leadership and Committees Through their generous support, Georgetown families help create and expand the culture of excellence that defines our university. Each year, philanthropy from our parent community supports scholarships, academic units, intercollegiate athletics, service initiatives, student affairs and so much more. Last year, Georgetown received more than $10 million in gifts from generous parents, making it one of the most robust philanthropic parent communities in the nation.

Supporting Georgetown

Whether through advancements in business and technology, breakthroughs in medicine and research, or by leading changes in law or social policy, gifts of every size help Georgetown have an even greater impact on the areas that matter most to our community. By investing in scholarships and student life, faculty and academic support, capital improvement, and transformative opportunities, we drive the University’s continued leadership and distinction in higher education.

There are many ways to make a gift today. For more information, please visit giving.georgetown.edu/parents. The Parents Leadership Council (PLC) is an advisory and advocacy group, fostering a sense of community among parents of Georgetown students, and serving as thought partners with university leadership. The PLC meets twice a year, building a strong network with each other and closely connecting with pan-campus partners. PLC families often also further the mission of Georgetown in their respective communities through hosting events, making welcome calls to new families and participating in professional development opportunities for students.
