“Being a part of the Parent Leadership Society helped make our experience more intimate and allowed us to get involved and be more engaged. We are thrilled that we joined and we encourage all parents to do so. It truly makes a difference to our beloved university, and it was rewarding to us as we navigated the years. We will miss CU Boulder, but we know that once a Buff, always a Buff!”

— Elise and Greg Green, parents of Ridgely (Comm’24)


"When we first joined the Parent Leadership Society, we were searching for a way to immerse ourselves in the CU Boulder community. The ways the Parent Fund supports the most vulnerable of the student community really touched our hearts. A student can't go hungry or lack necessities and be expected to succeed. We saw firsthand how every dollar given is faithfully stewarded and how contributions are used to help students through unforeseen hardships."

Grace and Ray Michael, parents of Rain Michael (Mus, Psych’24)
