Annual Giving
Utica University relies on annual gifts of all sizes each year from our generous alumni, families, and friends. These gifts provide essential, reliable, and significant support for all manner of University operations.
Whether its academic and student support, student aid, or athletics, an annual gift to Utica University is put to use immediately in the University's mission of educates students for rewarding careers, responsible citizenship, enlightened leadership, and fulfilling lives. By giving to Utica University, you are providing the essential resources to shape the leaders of tomorrow.
A pre-set, monthly contribution a donor desires to make by automatically charging their credit card, a recurring gift provides Utica University with a dependable and continuous source of funding and making the process much simpler for the donor. Rather than making a large, one-time gift, recurring gifts allow donors to spread out lower, automatic payments throughout the year.
To make a recurring gift to Utica University, please complete the donation form at the link below, selecting the amount you would like to contribute on a monthly basis and marking it as a recurring/sustaining gift.
Membership in the Pioneer Societies give you the opportunity to participate in the life of the University at any level you prefer. You become part of an exclusive circle of supporters who play an active role in facilitating student learning and in shaping the future of the institution.
