Your Gift: A Connection to 
LIFE-CHANGING OPPORTUNITIES
As part of Franklin University’s global community of more than 50,000 alumni, 
you play a meaningful role in supporting learners across every stage of their journey. 
“One Community. Infinite Journeys.” reflects the shared responsibility we have to open doors 
for today’s students and tomorrow’s leaders. Since 1902, Franklin has advanced its mission 
through the success and generosity of alumni who understand the power of education 
to transform lives, careers and communities.
Over the past year, demand for student support has continued to grow, particularly across 
the Alumni Military, 1902 Leadership Circle, and Community College scholarship funds. 
These increasing needs underscore just how vital donor-funded scholarships are in keeping 
higher education accessible and affordable. Franklin is partnering with students 
and supporters to help meet this demand by expanding affordability through transfer 
credit policies, corporate partnerships and the Tuition Guarantee.
When you give, you create immediate and lasting impact. Your contribution, of any size, helps 
fund scholarships, strengthen workforce-aligned programs, and sustain Franklin’s mission 
as the University of Opportunity. Every tax-deductible dollar you give goes directly to 
Franklin students who are working to build brighter futures for themselves and their families.
GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND
The General Scholarship Fund provides vital financial support to students from diverse 
backgrounds and academic disciplines. By contributing to this fund, donors help remove 
economic barriers to education, enabling motivated individuals to pursue their academic 
and career goals. This flexible fund ensures that scholarships can be awarded to the 
broadest group of learners.
ALUMNI MILITARY AND VETERANS SCHOLARSHIP
Our University’s namesake, Benjamin Franklin, was keenly aware of the value and sacrifice 
associated with military service, for it was on the shoulders of such service that the dreams 
of the framers of our Constitution were made a reality. The University established the Alumni 
Military and Veterans Scholarship for current military personnel of any branch, their spouses 
or dependents, and veterans. Your support will help the men and women who work to 
defend our great nation and its freedoms.
I started my journey with a dream, and you have made 
it a reality that I can continue furthering my education. 
I hope to be one of the best psychiatrists this country 
has ever seen! I have big ideas, big goals and a big 
purpose for medicine and behavioral therapy. 
Your support restores my faith in the plan I’ve designed 
for myself to lead with positivity and compassion. 
I will never forget your assistance and support 
in funding my dreams.   – GREGORY H.
