Standing Together
Now more than ever, the Division of Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement is grateful for our community as we come together to support UNLV. We are strong, resilient, caring, and connected by our love for our university.
Thanks to the commitment of alumni and friends like you, UNLV's most promising students receive the scholarship support they need to reach their academic goals. Your gift directly leads to student success, supports access and equity, and helps foster a climate of innovation. Thank you for supporting the UNLV community.
The scholarship took away a lot of stress of being a new dad and helped me focus more on school. I really don’t know how to express how grateful I am. I want to be a great physical therapist so that I can make a difference in other people’s lives.
