The nearly $800,000 raised will impact students, faculty, and staff across the University

 

The UConn Gives results are in and UConn Nation deserves a huge “thank you!”

More than 4,161 students, alumni, faculty, staff, friends, patients, and fans came together to support what they love about UConn. A wide range of University projects, programs, and initiatives are getting a big boost from the $794,497 raised over 36 hours on April 17 and 18. This is the most money raised in the history of UConn Gives.

For the first time, UConn Gives included initiatives for UConn Health, which received $30,255 from 161 donors.

This year’s success is due in large part to those generous donors who offered challenges and gift matches, and our 245 “UConn Gives Champions” who helped spread the word online and asked their friends and followers to support their passions.

Thank you to everyone who participated. Every donor made a difference!
