Become a Bristol Pioneer from the US
The US Bristol Pioneers are a community of donors who gift $1,000 in an academic year to the University of Bristol Foundation Inc (US Foundation).
Their remarkable philanthropic commitment over the past 20 years has led the way in creating brighter futures for Bristol students and enabling ground-breaking research.
The Pioneers are philanthropic leaders, committed to advancing Bristol’s global work in the higher education sector at a time when their support is needed more than ever. They also support a thriving community of US scholars in Bristol, and their generosity helps inspire others to give.

You can make a Pioneer gift from the US through a single gift by credit card or check made out to the “University of Bristol Foundation Inc”. Pioneer membership is based on the academic year (1 August to 31 July).
The University of Bristol Foundation Inc, or US Foundation, helps Bristol’s US alumni stay connected to one another and to the University. It is a US non-profit organization, tax exempt under Section 501 (c)(3) of the US Internal Revenue Code.
Funds donated to the University of Bristol Foundation Inc are eligible for matched giving by many US corporations. If your employer has a matching gift program, you may be able to double your donation to the US Foundation.
