On April 12, members of the UCI community will join together for an extraordinary day of giving back. Giving Day, a 24-hour giving campaign, is a chance for Anteaters everywhere to come together to show their pride and provide essential funding to support students and shape UCI. A gift to the CHP on Giving Day will be matched by donors, so every little bit helps! Even $5 will make a difference for current and future CHP students. Mark your calendar and make your gift on 4-12-17 at http://bit.ly/chpgivingday. Thank you!
