Philanthropic support plays a lead role in UC Davis Health System's ability to achieve its mission of discovering and sharing knowledge to advance health. From cutting-edge medical discoveries, to educating and training the next generation of doctors and investigators and providing outstanding comprehensive clinical care and public service, UC Davis Health System has earned both national and international acclaim. U.S. News & World Report ranks UC Davis School of Medicine among the nation’s best medical schools for primary care training and research. The school is affiliated with UC Davis Medical Center, one of the nation’s best teaching hospitals.

With the state contributing just 4 percent of UC Davis Health System's operating budget, support from alumni, friends, and corporate and foundation partnerships provide lasting and essential funding for:

• New research endeavors;
• Scholarships and fellowships;
• Endowed chairs and professorships; 
• Construction of state-of-the-art facilities; and
• Other important health-system initiatives.

Gifts support our existing strengths and contribute to the success of new initiatives that will enable us to make an even greater impact in our local community and beyond.

Whether you have a connection to a particular program, or simply would like to make a donation to support our research, education, patient-care and community-service missions via one of our key fundraising initiatives, your gift will help provide a better, healthier future for California. We invite you to become a partner in our mission by making a gift to UC Davis Health System.
