*THE BONUS FUNDS FOR NINER NATION GIVES HAVE BEEN EXHAUSTED*. THANK YOU to all the parents and students who supported the 2026 Class Gift during Niner Nation Gives.

The bricks and stoles have returned to their original, full price. We can no longer offer bricks at the special challenge rate since those one-time funds have been exhausted.

Thank you for your understanding during this busy time.


Leave Your Legacy with the 2026 Class Gift


We're so incredibly proud of you and all that you've accomplished during your time at Charlotte!

Now it's time for you to leave your permanent mark on campus through the Class of 2025-2026 Gift Campaign.


What does the Class of 2025/2026 Class Gift Support?


  • The Mental Health Assistance Fund assists students in covering the costs associated with seeking off-campus mental health care.
  • J. Murrey Atkins Library Fund provides opportunities that elevate the Library experience and offerings for the UNC Charlotte community

The graduates of the Class of 2025-2026 can shape what’s next at Charlotte. A donation means you’re investing and paving the way for future Niners!



  • One Line of Text |  4" x 8" Shared Brick | $49
  • Three Lines of Text  |  4" x 8" Full Brick  | $149


Your customized brick will be installed along 49er Way, the path taken between Hauser Alumni Pavilion and the football stadium, which is one of the most photographed spots on campus!

Once your donation is made, you should receive an email from Jasmine Amaniampong within 7 business days to finalize your brick language. *One line of text includes 15 characters/spaces.



We have been challenged to reach 600 donors before commencement in Spring 2026.

If we reach our goal, an emblem will be installed in the brick area and will be dedicated to the Class of 2025-26.

*Stoles can be picked up at the Harris Alumni Center on campus Monday - Friday, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. We unfortunately cannot mail any stoles.*

All inscriptions must pertain to a student's name, degree, grad year or a note of congratulations. UNC Charlotte reserves the right to approve or require an adjustment to inscriptions before production. 



For questions regarding the Class Gift, contact Jasmine Amaniampong: jamaniam@charlotte.edu
