Student Philanthropy Ambassadors

Student Philanthropy Council

Student Ambassadors for the UAlbany Fund Student Philanthropy Council (SPC) are charged with promoting a culture of philanthropy at UAlbany by educating students, faculty, staff, and alumni on the importance of giving back. Under the leadership of students, in coordination with Student Affairs and University Advancement, the SPC organizes on-campus educational events and initiatives throughout the year, from promoting UAlbany Giving Challenges to leading the Class Gift program.  Activities and funds raised benefit the University at Albany, its student and programs.
