Igniting the Power of Giving: Introducing the Student Philanthropy Council
The Penn Traditions
Alumni Engagement Fund
Penn Traditions Philanthropy Ambassadors are committed to educating the Penn undergraduate community about the importance of philanthropy and helping students understand how gifts have an impact on the experiences of every current and past Penn student. Students who participate as Student Philanthropy Ambassadors will be able to actively engage in each part of the donor cycle and experience philanthropy in action through their involvement in the funding allocation process. Philanthropy Ambassador members will gain experience with both programming and funding allocation through year-long philanthropy events including the Penn It Forward Student Philanthropy Week and actively managing the Penn Traditions Alumni Engagement Fund. The Alumni Engagement Fund provides resources to other student organizations. Philanthropy Ambassador members will review and accept applications and allocate money to student groups that program successful interactions between student members and alumni. Philanthropy Ambassadors give students a unique opportunity to be involved in philanthropy programming all while gaining funding board experience!
If your student organization is orchestrating an event to bridge students with alumni, the Penn Traditions Alumni Engagement Fund is here to support you. Resources are accessible via the Penn's Common Funding Application, designed to enrich community connections.
