Estimated $20 million gift for undergraduate scholarships to support educational excellence, access

Dear Campus Community,

I am delighted to share some wonderful news about the establishment of a new scholarship at UC Santa Cruz that will transform the lives of hundreds of our students. The Sabatte Family Scholarship, established by one of our visionary alumni, has been made possible through the largest single monetary gift ever received by our campus. I invite you to watch this video announcement and join me in celebrating this demonstration of extraordinary generosity for our students and university. 

To learn more about the Sabatte Family Scholarship, the donor whose vision made it possible, and the impact it will have on our campus, I encourage you to read our news story. What an inspiring way to begin the 2024–25 school year!

Sincerely,
Cindy
