Ready to get connected, stay informed, and be part of something special? The Stanford Parents’ Club is your community—whether you're a parent or guardian of a current or former Stanford student. Lifetime membership is free, and it’s a fantastic way to meet fellow parents, support students, attend events, and stay engaged with life on the Farm. Join us and discover how rewarding (and fun!) it is to be part of this vibrant, supportive network. We can’t wait to welcome you!
The Stanford Parents’ Club runs entirely on the passion of volunteers and the generosity of donors like you. Every event we host, every student we support, and every program we offer is made possible by your contributions. And the impact goes far beyond the present.
At the end of each year, any remaining funds are donated directly to the Stanford Scholarship Fund—helping make a world-class education possible for deserving students. In June 2024, thanks to your incredible support, we reached a milestone: the creation of a third undergraduate scholarship in perpetuity. That means three students now receive scholarships to attend Stanford every single year, for generations to come.
Your gift—big or small—truly makes a difference.
Suggested annual donation: $25
Thank you for helping us strengthen the Stanford community and support future Cardinal!
How your donations are used
Stanford Parents’ Club Operations & Programs:
We rely on parent donations to fund current year club operations and programs, because we receive no funding from Stanford University, and we do not charge a membership fee. Our operating budget is $20-25K per year and covers expenses like: technology, insurance, and program supplies. We have no payroll expenses. We are all volunteers.
Stanford Parents’ Club Scholarship Fund:
The Stanford Parents' Club has a 100-year tradition of funding scholarships. Since our founding in 1924, we have provided over 280 scholarships to Stanford students. Starting in 2024, thanks to your generous support, we will fund three students every year, continuing this commitment in perpetuity.

Non-profit Status:
Stanford Parents' Club is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization, separate from Stanford University. Please be sure you don’t confuse us with the "Stanford Fund,” managed by the University which raises money to be used where best needed for undergraduate education, and the University’s “Annual Fund” for parents.
Donations of any size are appreciated. Thank you.
