The Family Fund

Pomona parents and families have generously supported the College from its beginning. Historical records indicate Pomona's first-ever parent gift was received back in 1890 — when the College was just three years old.

Those first parent donors began a tradition of philanthropy that continues to have a substantial impact on students' experiences today. Thanks to the generosity of parents and families, students have access to world-class faculty and academic programs, hands-on learning opportunities inside and outside of the classroom, and an abundance of resources to foster critical thinking and support the exploration encouraged in Pomona's liberal arts education environment. This includes:

• The Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP), the Pomona College Internship Program (PCIP) Summer Experience, and Study Abroad
• State-of-the-art laboratory and classroom technologies
• Student services and community engagement opportunities like those provided by the Career Development Office, The Draper Center, and the Smith Campus Center & Student Programs
• The high-flying teams of our Sagehen Athletics Program
• Need-blind admission and scholarships

Please consider joining your fellow parents in giving to the Family Fund and supporting the unique Pomona education experience. Gifts of every amount matter and make a difference in the everyday lives of students. Thank you!
