Our 7th Giving Day was a tremendous success! If you missed your opportunity to give, you can still show your UCI pride and give by clicking here
ANTrepreneur Center

The UCI ANTrepreneur Center is where students experience and learn the mindset and value of entrepreneurship that will guide them in their entrepreneurial journeys and careers. We are proud to serve all students on campus including those that are traditionally underrepresented as entrepreneurs, executives and business owners. 

Your gift today will directly support student startup funding, resources to increase access to ANTrepreneur Center programming and targeted outreach to female entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs of color on campus.

*Every $500 raised means five more students explore entrepreneurship

*Every $1,000 funds a student startup

*Every $5,000 in support provides an entrepreneur scholarship to a student

If you are unable to support financially, we welcome you to engage in other ways such as: 

  • Spread the word about UCI Giving Day to your friends and your community
  • Mentor current students at the ANTrepreneur Center (virtual for now) - click here if interested
  • Engage with our social media content by following our accounts, joining our groups, and commenting on/liking/sharing posts that resonate with you 


We hope that you and your loved ones are happy, healthy and safe. Thank you.

Show your Anteater pride today and add a badge to your social handles.
