Proudly Pennies is the signature fundraising initiative of the Student Development Council to collect one billion pennies, the equivalent of $10 million.

Proudly Pennies...

• cultivates a spirit of volunteerism and philanthropy in students
• instills a sense of ownership and pride
• allows students to create a legacy and shape the university experience for future generations of Bearcats
• emphasizes the collective impact of many
• acknowledges that all gifts are important regardless of the amount, hence the theme: change makes the difference

The Student Development Council has issued a call to action to fellow students, UC alumni, faculty, staff, and local businesses of the Greater Cincinnati community to support the Proudly Pennies campaign.
