Dear Old Union Day
145 years of education | 1 day to make a difference

Join us on May 15th for an online celebration of Union Commonwealth University, where alumni, friends, students, faculty, and staff will unite to support scholarships, programs, and athletics teams as we embark on our 145th year as an educational institution. The Union Fund remains our greatest need on our day of giving, as 100% of undergraduate students receive scholarship/aid at Union. Your support of the Union Fund will provide essential student aid and scholarships to our new Bulldogs starting next fall, ensuring they have the support they need to succeed. 

Every gift, no matter the size, makes a difference in the life of a Bulldog. Now's your chance to make a positive impact!
