Join us for 2023 Giving Day!
Giving Day starts at 10 p.m. on Feb. 21 and runs for 49 hours through 10:50 p.m. on Feb. 23. We're inviting the entire Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ community to join us in participating in UA Giving Day 2023 so all of our alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends can directly support Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ.
Last year, about 750 alumni, donors and supporters took the time to give a combined $664,000 to support students and programs at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ, and with challenges available this year, we could supersize our donations to support even more programs and research vital to the community and state.
A new challenge to consider supporting this year will benefit Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ’s top fundraising priority. When 149 people make a gift to the Troth Yeddha’ Indigenous Studies Center it will unlock a collective gift of $30,000 from Heather Kendall-Miller and Lloyd Miller and the Legacy Committee.
In addition, Chancellor White is offering to make a $5,000 donation to the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ fund that gets the most gifts during Giving Day. There are also several challenges that will unlock more than $15,000 for Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ when alumni make a gift. to see the areas of donation and a breakout of the various challenges posted to supersize your gift.
