We are all Niners

TODAY is #NinerNationGives, a 49-hour digital fundraising event for Niners everywhere to support the University. Join Niner Nation to build community, celebrate your 49er pride and give back to our University today!

 

Around the country, 49ers are showing their pride by making a gift to their favorite college or unit at the University, wearing green, and spreading the word via social media using #NinerNationGives.

 

We are looking forward to making this the best year yet!

 

 

Here are some highlights from #NinerNationGives 2018.
