Join us April 15 to 17 for UMass Lowell’s eighth annual Days of Giving - your chance to support our students and help empower their success. For the past seven years, the UML community has come together to make an impact, and last year we did so in record numbers! Let’s keep the momentum going and continue designing the future of UMass Lowell together.

There are many opportunities to get involved:

Attend an event (see below) and/or make a donation on the UML Gives website to support the areas of campus that matter most to you or one of these featured impact areas:

  • Career-Connected Experiences—Help students prepare for successful careers by supporting the Chancellor Julie Chen Fund for Student Success.
  • Finish Line Scholars Fund—Help students facing financial hardships complete their academic journeys.
  • First-Generation Students—Provide scholarships and mentoring to promote academic success.
  • Food and Housing Insecurity—Help meet basic needs.
  • Student-Athletes—Empower River Hawks academically and athletically.

Thanks to the JJW Family Foundation, $25,000 in challenge funds will be awarded to the priority areas with the highest number of donors. Every donation—no matter the size—can help unlock even more support for our students.

Be an advocate. Help by spreading the word as a Days of Giving Advocate. Rally your network of friends, family and colleagues to support the areas of campus you care about most during Days of Giving. Share updates on social media using the the UML Gives website and #umlgives.

We appreciate all the ways our community gives back and are grateful to those helping to shape what’s next for UMass Lowell. Every action makes a difference—and every step helps us to keep designing the future for our students and our university.
