Anteaters Give Back 2025-26 campaign update: Thank you for supporting student scholarships!
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our 2025-26 ZotFunder campaign in support of student scholarships!
Together, we raised $19,000 for the Office of Financial Aid to distribute during the 2026-27 academic year.
We are excited to get started on plans for another successful campaign, but in the meantime, we celebrate this success and the positive impact we have all made on our Anteater community.
Once again, thank you for your support!
With great appreciation,
The UC Irvine Student Philanthropy Committee
