Parents Leadership Council
The Trinity College Parents Leadership Council is committed to preserving and enhancing the quality of the Trinity experience through personal philanthropy and outreach.
The Parents Leadership Council (PLC) is a deeply engaged community of Trinity families who serve as ambassadors and philanthropic leaders for the College. Through their generosity, leadership, and engagement, PLC members advance Trinity’s mission by supporting strategic funding priorities and creating meaningful connections that strengthen the Bantam community.

PLC members demonstrate their philanthropic leadership through annual gifts of $10,000 or more to the Trinity College Parents Fund. The Parents Fund provides essential resources for the programs, experiences, and opportunities that enrich student life and help ensure Trinity’s legacy of excellence continues to shape generations of students.
Many PLC members also choose to deepen their philanthropic partnership through multi-year commitments that provide sustained support for strategic priorities and initiatives, including endowed family scholarships, capital projects, student programs, and other areas that are meaningful to families and impactful to the Trinity community.
