Which Funds are Which....and What Do They Do?

In case you wondered...Alumni and friends sometimes ask what the difference is between the SILS Annual Fund and other groups associated with the University.

The SILS Annual Fund raises money annually for the School. The Carolina Annual Fund is a part of the Carolina First Campaign, and it raises money annually for all academic programs at UNC (for example, the Phonathon is a Carolina Annual Fund program). You and your spouse can give to SILS through us or the Carolina Annual Fund.

The SILS Alumni Association collects annual or life membership dues to support alumni activities and publications.

The General Alumni Association collects annual or life membership dues to support alumni activities and publications, such as the Carolina Alumni Review.

The Educational Foundation seeks support for athletic scholarships, facilities and programs.
