Where it All Started: Alumni Giving Campaign 2026

Give back to the community that invested in you and continues to walk alongside you.

UA is where it all started.
It’s where you were encouraged to dream bigger, try something new, and see the world differently. It’s where a community invested in you through opportunities, support, and belief—and continues to walk alongside you long after graduation.

By giving back, alumni help ensure today’s students receive the same life-changing experiences. Every gift, no matter the size, strengthens the UA community and keeps the cycle of opportunity moving forward.

This campaign is about connection. Gratitude. Giving back to where it all started.

We’re even making it fun and meaningful for example, the Class of 2025 is encouraged to give $20.25 or more!
