The gift of scholarships will transform their lives — so that one day, they can transform all of ours.
We were founded on the promise of accessible education: breaking down barriers and closing equity gaps to ensure that higher education was an option for those who sought it, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Our commitment to that promise still stands — and with your support, we’ll make it stronger than ever.

President’s Fund to Create More Student Opportunities
The Office of the President at Florida Atlantic University established the President’s Fund to develop an innovative series of programs designed to shape student opportunities. A $1 million gift from an anonymous donor launched the first program, which will support student internships in Washington, D.C.
Beginning in the fall of 2026, 10 Florida Atlantic students will participate in semester-long internships for each of the following five years in locations throughout Washington, D.C., including the United States Congress, the State Department, other government offices, and within public organizations. These immersive experiences have the potential to lead students toward lifelong careers and service opportunities.
This internship program is the first of several envisioned under the President’s Fund. Future initiatives include a student-exchange program through the Florida-Israel Institute and a distinguished speaker series that brings top-level policymakers to campus for presentations. The President’s Fund program seeks to raise an additional $1 million during each of the next four years with a new program component to launch each year.
