Our annual #UBGivingDay has concluded but the impact you have made on our students 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.
