A Fab-BLUE-ous Tradition

Victor E. Bull is exciting the crowd at a UB Men's Basketball game as a thank you to donors appears on the scoreboard.

This February, the UB community came together to celebrate Loyal Blues Month, our Feb-BLUE-ary tradition honoring the generous annual donors who strengthen the University at Buffalo every year. This is one of our ways of saying thank you for showing up, giving back, and helping keep UB’s academic, cultural, and community life vibrant and strong.

Throughout the month, Loyal Blues joined us for a series of special in‑person and virtual gatherings created exclusively for our most dedicated supporters. From connecting with fellow donors to hearing firsthand how annual gifts create meaningful opportunities for students, Feb-BLUE-ary was filled with UB pride and heartfelt gratitude. 

Thank you for your steadfast commitment and we look forward to celebrating with you again next year.
