UA Giving Day 2023
THANK YOU for being part of 49 Hours for Alaska!
Feb. 22 - 23, 2023

What is UA Giving Day?

UA Giving Day is a system-wide event to celebrate and generate support for UA. Once a year, alumni, friends, students, faculty and the Nanook Nation community come together for 49 hours to support the programs at UA that mean the most to them.


You can help us get the word out by becoming a UA Giving Day champion and asking your friends and family to make a donation to support the programs you care about most. We know people are more likely to make a gift when asked by a colleague or friend. Your participation makes a huge difference!
