Graduate Class Gift Campaign 2024-2025

We're so incredibly proud of you and all that you've accomplished during your time at Charlotte!

Now it's time for you to leave your permanent mark on campus through the Graduate Class of 2024-25 Gift Campaign.

Every gift of $49 or more, made by (or on behalf of) a graduate will be honored with a personalized brick on 49er Way. All proceeds from the brick sales benefit the Jamil Niner Student Pantry and Graduate Research Fund. 

What does the Graduate Class of 2024 Class Gift Support?

This year, the graduates of the Graduate Class of 2024-25 chose to shape what's next at Charlotte by supporting the Jamil Niner Student Pantry and the Graduate Research Fund.

The Jamil Niner Student Pantry assists UNC Charlotte students who struggle with food insecurities, helping ensure that every student has access to nutritious food.

• $10 can provide fresh produce for 5 Niners
• $25 can provide fresh bread for 10 Niners
• $50 can provide rice for 100 Niners
• $75 can provide spaghetti and pasta sauce for 30 Niners

The Graduate Research Fund supports graduate students with expenses related to conducting research.

Your gift, no matter the size, helps Niner students succeed!

• Your donation means you're investing in other Niners. Support from Niners (alumni and students) paved the way for you; now you can pay it forward!
• The Jamil Niner Student Pantry serves approximately 300 Niners facing food insecurity each week during the fall and spring semesters.
• Student and alumni participation (regardless of size) is an indicator of strength and affinity to our University. Giving back shows your 49er Pride, firsthand!

4" x 8" Shared Brick | One line of text* | $49

4" x 8" Full Brick | Up to three (3) lines of text* | $149

*One line of text includes 15 characters/spaces. You will receive a follow-up email with information regarding how to fill out the text you would like on your brick within 2-5 days after you have made your donation.

All inscriptions must pertain to a student's name, degree, grad year or a note of congratulations. UNC Charlotte reserves the right to approve or require an adjustment to inscriptions prior to production.

Your brick will be installed along 49er Way, between Cameron Boulevard and the football stadium. It's the path the Charlotte 49ers Football team, marching band, and fans take during home football games (one of the most photographed on campus)!

Please note that all perk levels listed above are suggested donation amounts.

We have been challenged to reach 100 donors before commencement in Spring 2025.

If we reach our goal, an emblem will be installed by your bricks and will be dedicated to the Class of 2024-2025.

*Stoles can be picked up at the Harris Alumni Center on campus Monday - Friday, 8:00 am - 5:00 pm  We unfortunately cannot mail any stoles.*
