UC Davis Annual Fund

Gifts to the UC Davis Annual Fund provide the chancellor with a source of flexible funds to respond to opportunities and initiatives that enrich student life. Since 1990, ongoing Annual Fund support from alumni, parents, students and friends has generated more than $20 million for UC Davis.

How the Annual Fund makes an impact

Over the years unrestricted gifts have funded scholarships, faculty support, events and ceremonies, and improvements to facilities and equipment, such as:

  • Chancellor’s Fellows Awards, which reward outstanding faculty early in their careers
  • Undergraduate scholarships and the Chancellor’s Achievement Awards, which reward academic achievement
  • Student and community events like Commencement and Picnic Day
  • Facility and equipment improvements, including new computer labs and updated classrooms in Wellman and Kerr Halls
  • Public art and beautification, like the famous Arneson “Egghead” sculptures that give the campus a distinct and welcoming personality.
