Our Commitment

University Advancement is dedicated to engaging alumni, parents, and the community in The Chico Experience. We believe that Chico State offers students a unique educational environment that celebrates academic achievement, learning beyond the classroom, and a commitment to civic engagement.

We invite you to join us in strengthening our University for future generations by investing in the people and programs that impact the future of our campus and our students.

Why Your Support Matters

Tuition and state support do not cover the cost of a Chico State education. Increasingly, the University depends on private gifts.

The University Foundation

The University Foundation stewards gifts and endowments that support Chico State's outstanding reputation for academic achievement, civic engagement, and sustainability. It is overseen by a governing board comprised of volunteers and campus leaders.
