Congratulations, colleagues! As of 12 p.m. today at the conclusion of UC ANR Giving Day 2025, generous donors and sponsors gave $80,438 to UC Cooperative Extension and the statewide programs, institutes and research centers that make up UC ANR.

This show of support demonstrates the impact you're having in your communities and the value that donors place on our work. UC ANR received $63,664 from 457 gifts and 4-H received an additional $16,774 from96 gifts.

Thanks to the generosity of donors who have supported the UC ANR Incentives Fund, an additional $5,000 will be distributed to UC ANR groups qualifying for our special boost incentives. The ANR Incentive Fund encourages donor engagement resulting in increased giving to all ANR programs.

Qualifying California 4-H programs also earned an additional $5,000 in Incentive boosts provided by the California 4-H Foundation.

Now it's time to steward your donors - reach out to learn more about why they gave and how you can continue to engage them. Strengthening your relationships is an investment in building lasting support! 

Donor reports by county and program will be available at the end of next week in the next issue of The Scoop.
