Parents Fund
Supporting the Parents Fund ensures an excellent Aggie experience!

Giving to the Parents Fund is one of the best ways you can help keep UC Davis strong for your student. 

Unrestricted funding, which the Parents Fund provides, allows Chancellor May the flexibility he needs to respond quickly to critical emerging needs and opportunities. It also supports crucial campus research and scholarship programs as well, as noted below.

This Give Day, help us strengthen research, teaching, diversity and flexibility at UC Davis through the power of the Parents Fund. Your gift of any size will have an enormous impact.

For 24 years the Chancellor's Fellows program has promoted creative and scientific inquiries at UC Davis. Two-hundred faculty have charted new territory in cellular biology, teen bullying, writing and artistic expression, climate change, public health, empowering the underserved, searching for life on Mars, and more. Often these research projects also provide students with career-building lab experience as well.

Chancellor’s Achievement Awards allow high-performing California students from disadvantaged backgrounds to pursue their education. Most recipients are part of the 42 percent of our undergraduates who are first generation to college. These awards are key to keeping a UC Davis education accessible to all.

This Give Day, help us strengthen research, teaching, diversity and innovation at UC Davis through the power of the Parents Fund. Your gift of any size will have an enormous impact.
