About Us

The Undergraduate Gift Campaign (UGC) is the official student philanthropy group of the College of Chemistry. Our goal is to galvanize undergraduate students of the College of Chemistry to support the next generation of scientific leaders at UC Berkeley. Led by a team of passionate and dedicated undergraduate students, our campaign works to build a school-wide culture of philanthropy amongst our students, alumni, faculty, and staff. Through student events and participation in the campus-wide initiative Big Give, we educate our community on the importance of philanthropy and instill a sense of camaraderie and pride for being a Bear

We had a record-breaking 2020 with our number of donors more than tripling any other fund on campusJoin us in making our 2021 campaign the best yet to help create a community of support for College of Chemistry undergraduate students that will last a lifetime.

Your Impact 

Your donation helps support two major programs in the CoC:

  1. CoC Peer Tutoring Program $200/day to run. Provides undergraduates with peer advising and tutoring in the various academic programs and classes in the College. Program resulted in a 1/3 decrease in the number of students on academic probation.
  2. CoC Chem Scholars Program $100/day to run. Provides faculty mentorship and leadership opportunities to help students succeed in our rigorous academic environment. Program served 160+ students in 2020 alone.

Matching Gifts 

For every $1 donated, Dean Doug, Dean Arnold, and Advisory Board Member Georgie Scheuerman will match $3. So, by giving just $10, you help raise $40 to support the CoC undergraduates! 

We were last year’s most supported fund. Help us make Dean Doug and Dean Arnold proud by beating our donor goal of 220 this year to secure our title for another year!
