’Cats Say Thanks

’Cats Say Thanks is ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø’s annual week of gratitude, which aims to thank donors, volunteers and Wildcats, while sharing the broad impact of philanthropy and engagement.

Alums, families and friends make a positive impact on every corner of campus by supporting scholarships, athletics, the arts, facilities and meaningful programs that create life-long memories and prepare students for lives of leadership and service. As part of ’Cats Say Thanks, we thank all donors, volunteers, mentors and partners for building the special community we love. Regardless of the way you share your support, your involvement is central to ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø’s success and future. Thank you.
