The UConn Waterbury Enhancement Fund provides flexible support for the most immediate and emerging needs of our campus, ensuring students have access to the resources, experiences, and opportunities that support success.
This year, the fund focuses on strengthening student experience and success while expanding access through community engagement and workforce‑aligned learning. Gifts support hands‑on academic experiences, scholarships and basic‑needs assistance, K–12 and community programs, and emerging technologies that prepare students for in‑demand careers in healthcare, STEM, and related fields.
The Enhancement Fund helps support:
- New and emerging campus initiatives
- Hands‑on, innovative academic experiences
- Student emergency assistance and scholarships
- Food security and other basic needs initiatives
These investments support students directly and help strengthen the greater Waterbury region by building talent, access, and opportunity.
Every gift matters. Participation at any level helps advance opportunity—one student, one program, one pathway at a time.
The UConn Foundation (EIN 06-6070722) is an independent, not-for-profit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization that exists to support the educational, scientific, cultural, research, and recreational objectives of the University of Connecticut.
