Each Grateful Gator Day, students, faculty and staff pause to celebrate the philanthropic generosity of those who donate to the University of Florida. Event activities highlight the importance and impact of private support across campus and beyond. This year’s event will take place on Wednesday, Oct. 25, 2023, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm at the Plaza of the Americas. Free food and T-shirts will be available for all participants (while supplies last).
The Impact of Philanthropy
• From lights to lab equipment to athletics, generous alumni, parents and friends help UF thrive.
• Gifts from alumni, parents and friends provide critical resources to support the more than 8,000 active research projects across campus.
• Gifts from The Gator Nation ensure that students have access to spaces that foster collaboration, facilitate research and prepare future leaders.
