On Thursday, March 13, 2025, we invite you, our incredible Cal community — alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff, and friends worldwide — to be the light for Berkeley during Big Give.
This annual day of giving celebrates our collective power to ignite innovation, fuel life-changing research, and brighten the future for countless students. During Big Give, contests and matches spark friendly competition, the hashtag #CalBigGive builds awareness and excitement, but it’s your dedication and generosity that truly shine as we empower Berkeley to change the world.
Show your Berkeley pride on March 13 and share with the Cal community how you’re helping Berkeley’s light shine brighter than ever before: Tell us on social media how Berkeley’s brilliance gleams in your eyes. Get a head start on this year’s contests by checking out our 2025 contest preview, and learn about being a Big Give Ambassador with our You+2 program where, if you sign up as an Ambassador, make your own gift, and get two others to give through your unique URL, you’ll earn exclusive Cal swag.
Your commitment to UC Berkeley means the world to us. See you March 13!
