Global Community Emergency Fund

Support Global Affairs!

At UC Davis, we believe in the incredible value that each member of our global community brings. Sadly, many of our international students and scholars are facing immense hardships due to natural and human-made disasters around the world. In response, Global Affairs has launched the UC Davis Global Community Emergency Fund.

Your donation will provide critical, immediate support to UC Davis students, scholars, and their families, helping cover essential needs like housing, transportation, utilities, and educational expenses. Many of our global community members are reeling from devastating crises that have displaced lives and disrupted futures.

With a dedicated team—including School of Law Associate Dean Beth Greenwood, Vice Provost and Dean Joanna Regulska, Associate Vice Provost Michael Lazzara, and Senior Immigration Advisor Kim Haky—we’ve already begun distributing funds and leveraging matching opportunities to maximize your impact.

Your gift of $5 or more will do more than offer immediate relief. It will empower those in need to continue their education, contributing to the next generation of knowledge, innovation, and solutions. By supporting UC Davis’ global community, you're helping these individuals rebuild their lives and futures.

This February, we aim to raise $5,000 through Crowdfund UC Davis to continue supporting our global community. Your donation will make a tangible difference and help prepare us for future crises.

Thank you for showing that our global community is one that cares, shares, and supports each other.
