About The Annual Fund
Each year thousands of alumni and friends express their loyalty and interest in the people and programs of the University by making a donation.
The primary purpose of the University of Illinois Annual Fund is to raise unrestricted gift funds for the Urbana-Champaign campus, its schools and colleges, and other campus units and programs. These gifts are often the only source of discretionary funds available to deans and directors to respond to unforeseen opportunities and needs. The Illinois Annual Fund allows you complete flexibility in where you direct your gift and how you choose to give.
When joined with the contributions of others who give each year, your gift helps meet immediate needs and creates extraordinary opportunities.
Your annual support has never been more critical. Support from alumni and friends helps hard-working students overcome financial hardship and remain at Illinois to complete their education; allows Illinois to recruit top-notch faculty members and maintain our core missions of teaching and research; enriches the cultural resources of the campus; and, ensures that the University Library may continue to preserve and grow their internationally-recognized collections.
Thank you for your support.
