Support the Anthropology Department

Home Giving to Social Sciences at UC Santa Cruz Support Support the Anthropology Department

Your gift makes a difference by providing scholarships for our undergraduate and graduate students, funding for student research and field studies, and opportunities for students to attend scholarly conferences. Our fundraising priorities in the Anthropology Department are:

Anthropology Department Unrestricted Gift Fund

Unrestricted donations give the department flexibility to pursue promising opportunities and meet pressing needs. Your contribution to the Anthropology Unrestricted Gift Fund will support departmental costs not covered by state funding.

Lab Development Fund

Your donation will provide support to assist in renovation and expansion of our archeological and physical anthropology labs. For more information see our Lab section.

Ryan Heumann Undergraduate Scholarship

Established to honor Ryan Heumann, a former anthropology student, this fund assists undergraduate students with the costs of faculty-sponsored independent research, research-related travel, or travel to professional academic conferences. [more]
