UH Giving Day 2022

A day for UH students, alumni, faculty, staff, and friends to come together to celebrate our Cougar pride and show how powerful we can be collectively!

March 7 University of Houston's birthday (95th)

Shows Pride​

There are many ways we can express the spirit of what it means to be a Cougar and “Always True.” Giving back is just one. ​
​

Gifts Add Up​

The collective impact of annual gifts from alumni and friends strengthens educational programs and student resources. ​

“It is because of philanthropy that students have been able to continue their studies in trying times.”​
​

Influences Our Reputation​

Alumni participation is one of the nine factors used to rank the academic quality of a university. Rankings impact the reputation of a university which in turn impacts the value of their degree. ​

“Your participation through your gift is also a point of pride and affirms the value of your UH degree.”​

​

Inspires Others​

When we give, it encourages others — other alumni, community leaders who may not have received a degree from the university and even influential corporations.​

“Even the smallest gift goes far beyond the walls of a university.”​

Give a gift of any amount to an area of UH they feel most passionate about.​

7,685 donors​

Why this amount exactly? We want to beat last year's numbers!​

When you make a gift, you get to decide where you would like your funds designated. 

When someone matches donations made by other donors.​

Ex. A generous donor has promised a $5,000 matching gift to the Fund for UH. When you give $10 to the Fund for UH, the donor gives $10 to "match" it until all $5,000 is gone!​

When a set goal is reached, it "unlocks" a gift.​

Ex. A donor has promised to give $5,000 to the Fund for UH if 1,000 people donate on UH Giving Day.
