MISSED UB GIVING DAY? CLICK HERE TO MAKE A GIFT TODAY.
A day to support your university!

Thank you!

Our 9th annual #UBGivingDay has concluded but the impact you have made on our students, our faculty and our world will be felt for years to come. 

Thank you for helping us show the world what UB pride looks like. Whatever you contributed to this year’s #UBGivingDay – your dollars, your time, your own social network – your support made a huge difference today. 

Your #UBGivingDay gifts are empowering access to education, they are fueling research and scholarship, they are creating opportunities for current and future students, and so much more. 

We’re working hard to tally the final numbers of this global day of impact. Please stay tuned and watch your email and social networks for the final tallies.
