Thank you for making GivingTuesday 2021 successful

We are still tallying the final results, but as of 11:59 p.m. on GivingTuesday 2021, our generous donors helped raise $114,310 for UC Cooperative Extension and the statewide programs, institutes and research centers that make up UC ANR.

An additional $40,000 was made available to incentivize giving to our programmatic and research initiatives at the state and local levels. This included $20,000 in matching funds provided by the California 4-H Foundation and donations from 4-H Foundation Board members designated for the 4-H program. It also included $20,000 in funds raised throughout the year for our ANR Incentive Fund, which is used to encourage donor engagement and increased giving to all ANR programs.

Donations received on GivingTuesday will support UC ANR programs addressing important issues impacting all Californians such as ensuring a safe, equitable and accessible food system; the impacts of drought and fire on our rural and urban communities; and engaging young people in activities that will build resilience, science literacy and leadership skills for the 21st century. 

These investments in UC ANR will help us bring practical, trusted answers to more residents across our state.

Again, thank you for supporting this fundraising effort, which benefits all of us and California. We look forward to announcing winners of the prize challenges next week.
