Chancellor’s Report on Philanthropy

Winter 2022

Dear ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ supporter,

As we celebrate the season of gratitude, I reflect on your generosity and that of others like you who make a difference at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ by investing in our world-class people and programs.

In September, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ hosted the UA Foundation Board of Directors at a reception where we showcased the Troth Yeddha’ Indigenous Studies Center Initiative. That evening, nearly $100,000 was donated in support of the This initiative moves ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ one step closer to the construction of what will be a center of belonging for ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Native and Indigenous students everywhere.

This fall I had the privilege to deliver ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ’s Convocation. I invite you to check out the — we have a lot to celebrate! Notably, through the generous gifts from our past, present and future donors, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ students and programs continue to thrive.

As we celebrate the power of transformative philanthropy at ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, it seems fitting to appreciate our legacy donors — an extraordinary group of people who included, or plan to include, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ in their estate plans. ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ is deeply grateful for the gifts from our past that continue to have a tremendous impact today, and we are humbled by the philanthropy we have yet to see.

I wish you a wonderful holiday season with your family and friends, and thanks for choosing ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ.
