UO Alumni Association
Transform lives and help students succeed

This year, the UO Alumni Association's scholarship program benefitted 52 students through over $145,000 in scholarships, empowering students to pursue their dreams and reduce student debt. Over the past decade, the UOAA has awarded more than $1.1 million dollars in scholarship, helping students succeed and graduate as proud, accomplished Ducks!

Be a part of their story.

Your gift today creates an immediate impact—supporting current and future Ducks from across the country and world. Together, we can help students thrive on their journey to joining our UO alumni community.


Give today to double your impact!

For Ducks Give, every dollar donated—up to $3,000 for each UOAA scholarship fund—will be matched by the UOAA. That means your generosity goes twice as far in support of student success.

Scholar Testimonials


Til Fretz, Class of 2027

“It means a lot that alumni from my hometown support me, since it’s always nice to know people support you and see something in you. I hope to be able to pay that forward as well in life. We should all help and support each other.” 

Til is a recipient of the Portland Chapter Scholarship. This is Til's second year receiving a UOAA scholarship.




Jordan Kagawa, Class of 2026  “I want alumni from Hawai’i who support me to know that I am very grateful to go to school here, as well as to be able to grow as a person and professional. I have had a lot of great opportunities at the UO that I would never have had anywhere else!”

Jordan is a recipient of the Hawai'i Chapter's Duane Cargill Memorial Scholarship. This is Jordan's third year receiving a UOAA scholarship.
