It's Giving Tuesday! How will you make a difference today?

This Giving Tuesday, we are calling on our community to come together and support students at UIS. Your gift today has the power to change lives – by providing scholarships, funding research and enhancing the overall student experience.

As UIS, we are dedicated to developing the leaders of tomorrow. Whether students are conducting innovative research or preparing to enter the workforce, your support makes these opportunities possible.

Dear Students, Faculty and Staff,

As the holiday season draws near, I’m reminded of the many things that make UIS so special—our traditions, our stories and our incredible community.

I recently had the opportunity to join students from the UIS Baking Club to decorate cookies and share holiday traditions. Together, we reflected on the unique stories that unite us as Prairie Stars. These moments remind me that while our individual journeys may differ, our shared hopes and values bring us together as one community.
