The results are in! This #GivingTuesday, we received 2,161 gifts totaling $176,505. This represents a 54% increase in the philanthropy of our generous donors as compared to last year's campaign.
Your support will be put to good use! Your gifts supported 174 different UC and UC Health funds/programs, truly representing the wide array of game-changing causes at the University of Cincinnati. We ask "what matters most to you?" and it was great to see over 2,000 people take action on November 27.
Congratulations to the UC Athletics Women's Excellence Fund for receiving the most gifts, closely followed by the College of Engineering & Applied Science Scholarship Fund and the Bearcats Pantry.
The numbers are interesting, but they are only half the story. The true power of #GivingTuesday will be seen in the coming year, as your gifts are put into action and start to make a tangible difference on every corner of our campus.
Thank you for support of the University of Cincinnati and UC Health.
This morning we had a stretch goal of 1819 gifts, and once everything has been finalized and counted we now know that we will comfortably pass that. We have an extremely limited supply UC 200 ornaments left, so we'll keep the page live a few hours into the morning for people to have one final opportunity to give.
To everyone who has already contributed - THANK YOU! This has been a record-breaking #GivingTuesday for UC and UC Health. We've been making a positive impact on the world for 200 years, and thanks to you, we're just getting started.
