Today is an exciting opportunity for Anteaters to celebrate our winning traditions and invest in our future. For over 50 years, UCI student-athletes have proudly represented their university. Our Anteater student-athletes have won 28 National Championships and 92 Conference Championships, and consist of 565 All-American honorees, 58 Olympians and over 4,000 Scholar-Athletes. As we strive to build upon these accomplishments, it is our goal to elevate UC Irvine Athletics to further national prominence.

YOUR IMPACT

To compete at the highest level of NCAA Division I Athletics, your generosity and support is more critical than ever. On UCI Giving Day, there are a number of giving opportunities to enhance the UCI student-athlete experience. These choices include the Department of Athletics and our Sport Specific programs. Your gift will provide support to the following areas:

Student-Athlete Scholarships
Academic Support
Recruiting Efforts
Facility Enhancements
Sports Medicine
Equipment Upgrades
Strength and Conditioning
Other Budget Relieving Expenses

Now is the time to invest in our future. Join us on UCI Giving Day and make a difference in the lives of our student-athletes. Every gift counts!
