I think that I have made an impact on this campus as a student, and I would like to continue to make an impact now that I have graduated – that’s why I will give back to UCA.
- Jake Logan, Class of 2013
Give to the Annual Fund today!
Alumni and friends help make things happen at UCA through annual gifts. Contributions to the Annual Fund provide a foundation for the growth and development of our university. Funds are put to immediate use and benefit every student on campus.
Each year, University of Central Arkansas alumni, parents, and friends give and these contributions help fund a variety of needs from student scholarships to faculty research grants. Annual gifts from our loyal supporters provide the essential annual income to help the university accomplish its mission.
Every gift, no matter its size, makes a difference and allows us to continue to provide the quality educational opportunities UCA is proud to offer. Year after year, we depend on your support.
Annual gifts provide financial assistance to students like Chloe McNeil who chose to study early childhood education because of her love for children and her desire to teach future generations how to make a difference in the world.
Annual gifts also provides grants to faculty members like:
- Dr. Katherine Larson who is developing a system of rain gardens in a cooperative effort between UCA faculty and students and Conway citizens ; and
- Dr. Alison Hall who is completing a West Mexican shaft tomb student project; and
- Dr. Ricky Brooks who is commissioning an original band composition to celebrate the 100th anniversary of UCA Bands.
