When you support IUSF, you support student leaders

As Indiana University embarks on its third century of educating young leaders, the IU Student Foundation has the opportunity to strengthen and grow in exciting ways. Over the course of the last 75 years, IUSF has shaped lives, careers, and communities. With the help of donors like you, we can impact even more students by continuing to provide leadership experience, scholarship opportunities, professional development, career connections, and lifelong friendships.

Why give to IUSF?

Simply put, to benefit Indiana University. Research has demonstrated that engaged students become engaged alumni. For example, 33 percent of IU’s 650,000 living alumni donate to the university, but a whopping 68 percent of IUSF’s 14,300 living alumni give (Validated by IUF Research in December 2017). IUSF alumni also volunteer to serve their alma mater at a higher rate than the general alumni population.

Whether you make a one-time gift or a recurring gift, your support will benefit the IUSF experience—making it possible for us to engage more students and be more intentional about the programming we offer. The result will be more IU graduates who are confident, experienced problem-solvers and driven, resilient leaders.

Annual giving

Any gift – small or large – has the power to better a student’s life. When you make an annual gift to IUSF, you affirm your commitment to student leadership development and student led programming. By supporting the IU Student Foundation Development Fund, you support IUSF general members and Little 500 riders and the programming that makes their college career special and memorable.
