In fiscal year 2025, we received nearly $318 million in philanthropic support — a testament to our community’s shared belief in the power of higher education to fuel discovery, drive innovation and foster global transformation.
Endowed funds are foundational to our success: They empower the scholars, artists, physician-scientists, educators and changemakers whose ideas lead us to a brighter future. Because of donors like you, we are expanding access to an exceptional education, enriching the student experience, catalyzing research efforts that address society’s most urgent challenges and advancing health care that is personalized, equitable and inclusive. Gifts to endowed funds do more than sustain excellence — they ensure that it endures. They make it possible for our campus community to dream boldly, act fearlessly and uplift lives around the world.
As you explore your personalized report, I hope you will take pride in the difference you make. Now more than ever, donors like you are essential to sustaining progress and possibility at UC San Diego. Thanks to your support, a brighter, more hopeful future is taking shape — one bold step at a time.
With heartfelt gratitude,
