Giving

UMass Boston Fund

For over 150 years, the faculty of the University of Massachusetts Boston and its legacy institutions, including Boston State College and State Teachers College at Boston, have engaged students to build the skills and confidence that make their knowledge matter - right here in Massachusetts.

The UMass Boston Fund provides a stream of vital support which strengthens the university's research, teaching and service mission. Your gift helps provide a student-focused, quality education that is also accessible.

We depend on you. Your support, whether it is a first-time gift of $25 or at the Chancellor's Council level ($1,000+) enriches campus life through:

  •  financial aid;
  •  faculty development and research;
  • new learning technologies and library resources; and
  • community partnerships.

Designate your gift for UMass Boston's highest priority or toward a college, a special area of interdisciplinary research, Athletics, the Healey Library or one or more of our over 30 Institutes and Centers. View a range of opportunities where your investment will have significant impact. Please note your preference for a specially designated gift on the "other" line of our on-line giving form.
