A Brilliant Future for Everyone

The campaign for UC Irvine is about a brilliant future for everyone.

It’s a celebration of the perseverance, dedication and passion of UC Irvine people who will stop at nothing to transform healthcare and wellness, to advance the American dream, to accelerate world-changing research, and to explore the human experience.

With your help, we will raise $2 billion to move UC Irvine’s programs and people to greater heights of impact and influence, and meaningfully engage at least 75,000, or about 1 in 3, alumni.
