As an employee of UAA, you dedicate your work to the success of our students, our
mission and this community — guiding each graduating class toward their dreams of
opportunity and innumerable contributions to our state.
On March 25, the University of Alaska System will invite our communities to help envision a bold, adventurous and transformative future for our students and for Alaska. Together all three universities, their community campuses and the University of Alaska Foundation, will publicly launch the system’s first-ever comprehensive fundraising campaign.
Anticipated to be the largest public fundraising effort in state history, this campaign aims to raise $200 million for the University of Alaska System.
Complementing our vision for UAA 2025, this coordinated fundraising and public outreach effort is an opportunity to further position higher education as a catalyst for a thriving Alaska. The campaign invites alumni, commerce leaders, foundations, community partners and neighbors to invest in your momentous work: delivering high-quality education to meet the needs of the people of Alaska and build a better future.
Every dollar raised will be part of the campaign. Four key messages summarize the priorities of University of Alaska’s vision:
- Expand the culture of education in Alaska
- Provide Alaska's skilled workforce
- Champion UA's world-class research, relevant to Alaska and the Arctic Region
- Contribute to a more diversified, growing economy — expanding and integrating Alaska's knowledge base
