Join us to support Inclusive Excellence during Give Day 2026
Imagine the moment a birthday cake is set in front of you. Your loved ones surround you, the candles glow and you’re invited to make a wish. Whether people are singing “Happy Birthday” or “Las Mañanitas” or “Saeng Il Cookha Hapneeda,” it is a moment for you to reflect on a milestone and also focus on your hopes and dreams for the future
That’s the moment Inclusive Excellence finds itself in this Give Day.
As UC Davis Give Day celebrates its 10th birthday, we are pausing to honor how far our community has come and to imagine what’s possible next. This milestone is both a celebration and an invitation: to reflect on the people who show up every day to build belonging, and to wish for a future that is full of dignity and respect for all.
Our Give Day birthday wish is to continue supporting the faculty, staff, students, clinicians and community partners whose dedication fuels Inclusive Excellence across UC Davis.
This year’s birthday wishes include:
- Unlock Vice Chancellor Renetta Garrison-Tull’s Give Day Challenge tied to the AVANZA Excellence Fund, which supports student success and leadership.
- Unlock a Give Day Challenge in support of Aggie Black Excellence at UC Davis.
- Expand student and workforce development pathways from K–16 and beyond.
- Advance health equity and inclusive, community-centered care.
- Strengthen employee resource groups and academic committees that build leadership and connection.
This Give Day, you are the light that makes these wishes possible. Your generosity illuminates the path forward and fuels our hopes for the days and years to come.
Make a gift to Inclusive Excellence this Give Day and help bring our wishes to life.
