University of Ilinois Foundation

 

The University of Illinois Foundation (UIF) develops fundraising programs and serves as the steward of gifts and bequests from alumni and friends.

UIF staff provide the margin of excellence for the private support that is essential for enhancing research, increasing scholarship funding for deserving students, and meeting unanticipated needs.

A multitude of individuals committed to U of I educational and research excellence — alumni, friends, corporations, foundations, faculty and campus development staff members — all work together to achieve the common goal of support for the University of Illinois.
