Current Use

The Lowell Fund is created through annual gifts from alumni and friends—people who know our history and believe in our future. The Fund supports campus-wide, current priorities including student scholarships, faculty development, library and computer resources, special research projects and facilities management. All gifts to the Lowell Fund are put to work in the year they are received.

Unrestricted gifts—gifts that are not designated to a particular college or department—give the Lowell Fund its strength. These gifts are essential as they provide the University with the flexibility to respond to opportunities and needs as they arise.
