One of the benefits of giving to UVI is knowing that you have made a conscious decision to invest in the quality of education offered to UVI students.

Contributions ensure the availability of funds for student and faculty research, student aid, technology, summer academies and training, scholarships, the performing arts and many other ongoing and unforeseen needs of this institution.

Beyond the benefits to the institution and students, donating to UVI positively affects your tax situation by providing a charitable gift tax deduction.
