Retirees and emeriti of UC Riverside continue to give back to UCR in various ways. Some contribute their time and expertise by serving on recall appointments, making campus gifts, volunteering to support campus initiatives, or surrounding community efforts, while others take on encore careers or care for their families.
Please consider making a gift to the UCR Retirees’ Association Undergraduate Scholarship or the UCR Emeriti Association Graduate Student Travel Award funds — two exciting ways in which retirees and emeriti can support the talented students of UCR. We kindly ask UCR staff, faculty, retirees, and emeriti to come together as one and support the educational needs of our students.
-
By supporting the UCR Retirees’ Association Undergraduate Scholarship, you will join retired staff in raising funds to help undergraduate students with financial need achieve their educational goals. Preference is given to the children, grandchildren, and close relatives of UCR non-Senate staff and retirees.
-
By supporting the UCR Emeriti Association Graduate Student Travel Award, you will join retired faculty in setting up an endowment to fund one or more graduate students with a travel award needed to attend a professional meeting or to pursue scholarly activities at other institutions and/or research sites. The Emeriti Association Graduate Student Travel Award Fund has a starting goal of raising $12,500.
In supporting the initiatives above this year, gifts of $5 or more made to student support funds during Giving Tuesday will be matched one to one until we’ve reached $200,000 in total gifts. This means your support on Giving Tuesday 2021 can go twice as far!
