UCCS kicked off Giving Tuesday with a breakfast on campus attended by more than 100 faculty and staff members. At the breakfast, the All Colorado Beer Festival made a $25,000 Giving Tuesday donation to UCCS’ Theatreworks and a UCCS scholarship fund.

All donors who contributed at least $10 received a pair of UCCS-branded socks.
