School of Humanities

Almost half of UC Irvine students are the first in their families to attend college. For School of Humanities students, their education goes beyond earning a degree – it allows them to shape and mold their futures. But financial barriers can limit access to these transformational experiences. 

On Giving Day, we aim to raise $25,000 to provide:

-Internships, study abroad opportunities and scholarships for undergraduate students, equipping them with the resources they need to succeed

-Research funding for graduate students, allowing them to conduct groundbreaking research


Your gift today supports our mission in ensuring every student has access to these life-changing experiences that will have a lasting impact on their futures, without financial barriers. Please join us in creating a brilliant future for our students, our community, and our world.

  “Scholarships for history and humanities students help us feel seen and valued. I am incredibly grateful to have received a scholarship.” – Lily Amidon






“UC Irvine offers an environment rich with resources for students to engage with global perspectives. Thanks to donor support, I will be studying in Tokyo this year. This scholarship allows me to explore my passion, engage with communities abroad, and observe global dynamics firsthand. Thank you making this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity a reality!” – Gloria Lee



"This journey is more than an educational pursuit. For me, it’s a chance to develop my voice as a writer and contribute to the rich tapestry of literature. Your generosity profoundly impacts my ability to focus on my academic and career goals. Thank you for being a vital part of my journey.” – Aura Diaz
