UC Davis’ Historic Expect Greater Campaign Raises $2.25 Billion

The University of California, Davis, is celebrating its most successful fundraising campaign — Expect Greater: From UC Davis, for the World — a multi-year effort that raised over $2.25 billion for student support, health research and care, sustainability, innovation and more.

Donors to the School of Veterinary Medicine were integral to the campaign, giving almost $470 million to the support the school’s mission. This included more than $50 million in the past year alone, when the school was celebrating its 75th anniversary. $850,000 thousand of that total went toward a 75th Anniversary scholarship endowment fund, bringing the school’s total scholarship endowment above $120 million.

From small donations to large, donors used their passion to help the nation’s number one veterinary school support the education and training of veterinarians and veterinary scientists, treat animals, advance new treatments and scientific breakthroughs, and perform public service.

In the coming weeks, the school will be celebrating the campaign on its social media. You can follow along on the school’s Instagram account.
