UCI Giving Day 2019

While Giving Day 2019 has come to a conclusion—the impact of your generosity will continue on.

 

On April 24, 2019, UCI alumni, students, faculty, staff, emeriti, retirees, parents and friends from around the world made a tremendous impact on our campus and community. We are sincerely grateful to everyone who supported scholarships, groundbreaking research, medical services and innovative programs at UCI.

 

Together, we made a mountain out of an anthill. THANK YOU!
