Thanks to our generous and loyal community, Uni High had a remarkable year, surpassing its overall fundraising goal and achieving our highest total by over $16K. We advanced key priorities while acknowledging there is still more to accomplish.
We actively engaged our community through student-focused events like senior handprints and supper, Uni family gatherings such as registration and the new parent reception, and affinity group activities including coffee meetups with former faculty, a successful Uni ReUNIon, a virtual event hosted by the UHAA Board, and a well-attended alumni gathering in LA.
Parent support during registration week exceeded last year’s total by $20K. While giving per household remains below pre-pandemic levels, the number of participating households grew by 6%. Annual giving remained strong, with 1,355 donors contributing an average gift of $525.
We secured five years of funding for Uni’s equity programming initiatives and established two additional endowments for faculty salary enhancements, bringing the total faculty salary enhancement endowment to $1.4M.
Additionally, Uni High’s administrative team collaborated with campus leadership to better understand the capital project process, initiating early discussions on a potential project and feasibility study fundraising.
