Utah Valley University (UVU) invites you to give together to support UVU students this Giving Tuesday, November 28, 2023. Every dollar makes a profound difference and provides resources, programs, and initiatives for UVU students to succeed in academics, work, and life.

 

UVU students endure significant challenges. Out of UVU’s more than 43,000 students:

 

• 82% are employed while working toward their degree
• 14% support at least one child at home
• 37% are the first in their family to pursue higher education *

 

 

What can a $10 gift do for a Utah Valley University (UVU) student? Great question. University research reveals that a student spends approximately $300 a month on groceries. With a gift of $10, you are providing a student with a day’s worth of nourishment. Utah Valley University’s CARE Hub serves as a vital source for essential items of daily living for all UVU students. The UVU CARE Hub is dedicated to helping students connect to resources that will help them address insecurities around food, housing, health, and safety.

 

The success of UVU students begins with ensuring their basic needs are met so they can focus on their learning. Please consider making a gift today.

 

“Without the support of donors, it’s likely that I would never be able to attend college, let alone be involved in the many wonderful experiences I’ve been a part of,” shared Timberlyn Shaw ’24. “UVU donors have made a critical difference in my life.”

 

Timberlyn’s father passed away when they were a young age. Following his footsteps, they felt inspired to attend UVU and major in philosophy. Now a UVU senior, Timberlyn feels a deep connection with their father and the goals he set for his family.

 

On Giving Tuesday, you can enhance learning experiences, invest in groundbreaking research, and create a nurturing environment for a UVU student. Your contribution of any amount enables endless possibilities for ALL UVU students.
