Thank you for giving! This year’s campaigns will IMPACT the School of Public Policy’s (SPP) network and our community for years to come.

The Investing in Future Public Sector and Nonprofit Leaders campaign saw $4,566 in generous donations from 76 donors. These donations will be utilized towards establishing a merit scholarship fund for incoming graduate SPP students. Our goal is to break down financial barriers to pursuing graduate education.

The Children with Incarcerated Parents Initiative Scholarship fund exceeded the goal of 30 donors and $3,000! This campaign is intended to address the financial hardship of a parent losing income while incarcerated. Two students will benefit from the $3,091 raised from 54 generous donors.

Our two ways of giving unlocked three Public Policy Prizes across the 36 hours. The first prize included a photo collage of some of Jonathan’s best pet friends! We would argue they may even be his cutest. Our second prize included a social media toolkit. We wrapped up another phenomenal year of UConn Gives by announcing our Bryan and Wade video premiere at the May 6th Pre-Party for the Celebration to Honor the Graduates. Stay tuned Huskies and thank you again for giving!
