Philanthropic Support to UC Davis Surpasses $100 Million for Third Consecutive Year

Donors in 2008-09 included alumni, parents, faculty and friends, as well as corporations, foundations, and other organizations. The $108.1 million provided a wide range of support for students, faculty and programs and came from a broad financial range, according to Cheryl Brown Lohse, associate vice chancellor for University Development. Consider that 16 donors made gifts of $1 million or more, while UC Davis students made important contributions through a senior class gift effort.
