- Senior Class Giving Campaign
- Graduating classes have left their legacy to the campus in the form of a gift from UCI seniors to the university community. This effort ensures that the Anteaters after them will have access to the same -- or better -- high-quality education. This year, the Class of 2009 has plans to leave its own legacy of giving, by encouraging each graduate to donate ANY amount to ANY area of campus. Seniors can give to ANY UCI fundraising initiative, from scholarship programs, to athletics, to the library, to your school. Your gift, no matter the size, will make a difference!
The Senior Class Giving campaign kicks off on Tuesday, Feb. 3, 2009, at GradExpo in the UCI Student Center. Stop by our table to make your gift.
For more information about the 2009 Senior Class Giving Campaign, please contact Jane Ong, Assistant Director of Annual Giving at: 949.824.7932 / jane.ong@uci.edu.
- Honor with Books
-
Create a lasting tribute to your graduate by participating in Honor with Books with a gift of $100 or more. UCI Libraries places a commemorative bookplate in a new book in the subject area of your choice. The bookplate displays both donor and graduate names. The donor and the graduate receive a copy of the personalized bookplate. For further information, please go to partners.lib.uci.edu, call 949.824.4658 or email Julie Sully.
To mark this special milestone event, the UCI Libraries invite parents of graduates to participate in Honor with Books, a special opportunity to place a commemorative bookplate in a new library volume in a chosen subject area. The bookplate will indicate that you gave the book in honor of your son or daughter and the year of graduation. A gift of $100 or more to Honor with Books celebrates your student’s time at UCI and enables the Libraries to purchase new books and materials for future generations of students. For further information and to receive a brochure, please call (949) 824-4658 or email Julie Sully.
