UConn Extension is participating in UConn Gives—the University’s 36-hour giving campaign—on April 21–22, 2025. This year, we are raising support for our Reaching All Communities fund. Your gift will help us continue delivering trusted, research-based programming to people across Connecticut.

UConn Extension reaches all 169 towns in the state, supporting communities with educational programs in agriculture, natural resources, nutrition, youth development, and more. The Reaching All Communities fund helps us expand access to these programs and serve new and underserved populations.

A recent example of this work is our private well water testing initiative. With support from the Reaching All Communities fund, we were able to offer water testing and education to residents in rural and underserved areas of Connecticut. Access to safe drinking water is a critical health issue, and this program ensures that more families have the resources they need to protect their health.

Your gift during UConn Gives will help us grow this work—whether it’s helping a family understand their well water quality, supporting youth through 4-H, or providing nutrition education in local communities.

Mark your calendar for April 21–22, and help us reach more communities with knowledge they can trust. Make your gift here: s.uconn.edu/GiveToExtension
