The UConn Foundation is an organization that receives and manages University donations. They are a separate entity from UConn , and their funds are housed separately from our University Funds. When funds are donated, they are distributed to the corresponding Foundation account that matches the donors purpose. The Foundation also can reinvest the funds to benefit the Universitydonor’s intent.
Funds are managed through the FELIX system where a multitude of accounts are held to promote support various departments, research initiatives, scholarships and fellowships, events, and general expenses for UConn departments at the University. Each Foundation account is set up with a description for has an agreement that is signed and specifically notes how the funds are to be utilized.
