For 24 hours, Wildcats around the globe will unite for the University of Arizona’s annual Giving Day — a celebration of generosity, community, and Wildcat pride. At the College of Education, Giving Day supports life-changing scholarships and programs that prepare students to lead, teach, and serve communities across Arizona and beyond. Gifts help expand opportunities through initiatives like the Worlds of Words (WOW) Center, which promotes global literacy and cross-cultural understanding, the Curriculum Development Institute (CDI), which helps faculty create inclusive and culturally responsive learning experiences, and the Cooper Center for Environmental Learning, which provides immersive outdoor education experiences that connect students and communities with Arizona’s natural environment. Giving Day contributions also strengthen scholarships for future teachers, school counselors, special education professionals, and higher education leaders, helping reduce financial barriers and expand hands-on learning opportunities. Every gift — no matter the size — helps empower students and advance research and programs that transform lives.
