Get in on GivingTuesday Nov. 30

Join us on Tuesday, Nov. 30, for GivingTuesday, a global day of giving that harnesses the collective power of individuals to celebrate generosity worldwide. UC ANR programs can invite donors to help address important issues impacting all Californians.

In 2020, UC ANR raised nearly $200,000 in online donations benefiting participating programs, research and endowments across the state.

To make it easy to participate, Emily Delk, director of annual giving and donor stewardship, created a Campaign-In-A-Box: https://ucdavis.box.com/s/p0vkjla36js7lxmgycez8phs6f08nsot. The graphic images have been formatted to fit each of the major social media platforms. You are welcome to brand local photos with logos as part of the campaign. 

All participating UC ANR groups are eligible to compete for prize challenges.
