We Love our Loyal Blues
When you make a gift to UB every year—at any amount—you become part of a community of donors who believe in the power of a University at Buffalo education and the potential of every UB student.
Stay true to the Blue
Your gift molds a university that you’re proud to call your alma mater. To maintain your Loyal Blues status, be sure to make a gift, in any amount, each year (it’s that easy). We also encourage you to connect with our online community and participate in alumni events.
Connect with other Bulls
Want to stay up to date on networking events, UB news and Loyal Blues donor recognition perks? It’s simple: make sure we have your correct email. Already signed up? Don’t forget to update your contact information when you make a life change.
Participate with pride
Your participation shows your pride in UB and the education you received, setting a powerful example for past, present and future Bulls. Loyal Blues are encouraged to attend events, volunteer in their communities and spread the word about UB wherever they go.
