Oct. 22, 2021
Join development staff across UAF for UA Giving Day 2021 on Nov. 9-10. This online fundraising event is a chance for alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends to support UAF.
Last year, many of you helped launch the successful first-ever Giving Day for Alaska’s universities. More than 580 UAF alumni, donors and supporters took the time to give a combined $416,000 to support students and programs.
This year, we want to increase the number of UAF champions to help make a positive impact on our students' lives. You can help meet this goal by signing up as a UAF champion for Giving Day 2021. Your support and influence will make UA Giving Day 2021 a success.
Other ways to get involved include making a gift on Giving Day and sharing your story with friends and family on social media and other communication channels. You can also help recruit champions by reaching out to your friends, family and peers to ask them to join us.
UA Giving Day 2021 is a collaborative effort between the University of Alaska Foundation and Alaska’s three universities. It is an opportunity to encourage the community to come together in a show of support for the University of Alaska. Donations of all sizes are welcome.
The UA Giving Day website, givingday.alaska.edu, has tools for champions to help share the event through digital and social media channels. The website will track overall dollars and donors generated during UA Giving Day, as well as gifts to schools and colleges, programs and designated funds. Posts about UA Giving Day across social media channels using the hashtag #49HoursForAlaska will be featured on the site.
