UCF is on the rise. We’re moving ahead in national rankings for quality and

innovation, and we’re focused on helping students gain the knowledge and skills they’ll need to lead in the 21st century.

But UCF can maintain its upward trajectory only with your investment in our success. Why should UCF’s continued ascent matter to you and other alumni?

f Because you care about the world — and today’s global challenges

require the smart solutions emerging from UCF classrooms and labs

f Because you care about tomorrow’s students — and state funding

alone can’t fully support their ambitions and opportunities

f Because you care about your future too — and as the university

prospers, your UCF degree increases in value

Combined with gifts from other alumni, your contribution to the UCF Fund will give a collective boost to our students, faculty, and the communities we serve. Give today — and let’s keep rising, together.

Cordially yours,

John C. Hitt President
