Creating Opportunity.
Transforming Lives.
Wake Forest’s greatest impact has always been found by honoring the promise of Pro Humanitate through the development of young minds with goals and aspirations that extend far beyond themselves. When we create life-changing opportunities at Wake Forest, we deliver the mission of Pro Humanitate to the world.
Giving Societies
Wake Forest Giving Societies offer our friends, alumni and parents a way to pledge their lasting commitment to supporting the school they love. Welcome to the place where the most loyal of Wake Foresters choose to hang their top hats.
Ways to Give
No matter the method you choose, or the size of your donation, each gift helps the University provide a world-class educational experience and wide range of opportunity for deserving students and faculty.
Wake Forest Fund
Not only does a gift to the Wake Forest Fund set in motion a chain of events that keeps the best and brightest on campus and increases the value of your degree, it’s also a direct investment in those with the potential to change our world for the better.
Constant & True
Membership in Constant & True requires a consecutive giving streak of greater than two years or a recurring credit card gift to any corner of Wake Forest University.

With Gratitude
In April, Wake Forest hosted the 2026 Benefactor Dinner honoring the commitment of alumni, families, and friends who create scholarship opportunities for students. We are incredibly thankful for all of the individuals who passionately support access to education for current and future Wake Forest students.
Because of the generosity of many donors, students are able to pursue their education and follow their passions at Wake Forest. Thank you to the donors who have made all of this possible.
