Giving

 

PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE. PRIVATE SUPPORT.

At UC Merced, 9 out of 10 students received some form of financial assistance. Every donor, every dollar, every day makes a difference. Every year, thousands of alumni and students choose to donate back to their alma mater -- make an impact and inspire other Bobcats today! Every contribution by an alumnus supports UC Merced's National Rankings. In addition to inspiring other alumni to give, each gift represents an alumnus' vote of confidence in their alma mater.

UC MERCED ALUMNI ASSOCIATION JOURNEY FUND

You can choose to distribute directly to the work of the UC Merced Alumni Association, your class gift, undergraduate scholarships or graduate fellowships. In addition, you can also browse additional funds online to find the right match for you.

ALUMNI ENDOWMENTS

In 2015, two alumni participated as the first donors in the UC Merced Alumni Endowed Scholarship Program — donations made payable as an outright gift or over a multiyear pledge. Since then, alumni have continued to be inspired by their fellow Bobcats to create a legacy of philanthropic support for deserving students as they pursue their academic goals.

As of today, 18 endowments have been established by UC Merced alumni who committed to giving back to their alma mater in honor of their families and personal journey.
