The tradition of private support for UConn dates back to the University’s 1881 founding as the Storrs Agricultural School with a gift of farm land and funds from Charles & Augustus Storrs.

Today, thanks in large part to the generosity of thousands of individuals who believe in the promise of higher education, the University of Connecticut is consistently ranked as the top public research university in New England. Private gifts increasingly give UConn the edge among its peers in advancing teaching, research and public service. Your gift not only reflects your own passion, vision & values, it becomes an investment with inestimable return to others.
