Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, UC Day of Giving has been postponed.

In these unprecedented times, it’s important to care for ourselves, our families and those in our communities. UC has taken decisive measures to ensure everyone’s health and safety amid the COVID-19 outbreak, including canceling in-person classes, and closing university and dining facilities for the rest of the semester.

These closures affect each of our 46,000-plus students, and we’re grateful that so many can return home to be with their families.

People have graciously asked how they can help—this is your chance.
