Come together for UCI Health this Giving Day. Every gift counts. Support the areas that matter most to you.

When you make a gift to UCI Health, Orange County’s only academic health system, you change lives in our community, around the globe and across generations. We are dedicated to making groundbreaking discoveries, training the next generation of healthcare professionals and pioneering novel therapies in patient care across all areas.

UC Irvine Giving Day is a celebration of our community and its many achievements. It’s a day to support our clinicians, researchers and support teams — all of whom are committed to revolutionizing health and wellness. Your gift today will help transform the future of healthcare through leading-edge research, first-of-a-kind clinical trials, innovative education and exceptional treatment of the most common as well as the rarest conditions and diseases. On its own, a single gift may seem small. But when combined with others, it becomes something extraordinary: a collective force that propels UCI Health forward. 

With passionate partners like you by our side, we are not only practicing medicine, we are creating it. This Giving Day, we will build a healthier tomorrow for all.
