We made a mountain out of an anthill

Giving Day 2018 has come to a close! On April 25, 2018, UCI alumni, students, faculty, staff, parents and friends came together and made a real impact on our campus and community. We are sincerely grateful to everyone who participated. Together, we showed the world that the Anteater spirit is stronger than ever. Together, we achieved tremendous things. Together, we made a mountain out of an anthill. THANK YOU!
