Giving to Beyond120

Do you remember the moment you found your spark — the turning point when you reached for something more and began pursuing what you truly wanted?

For many of us, those moments shape our dreams and set our lives in motion.

At Beyond120 in the UF College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, we get to witness those sparks every day in our students. And with the right support, we can help create more of them, ultimately turning curiosity into confidence, and possibility into preparation.

With the collective strength of our alumni, donors, and friends, the Spark Something campaign is launching Beyond120’s first comprehensive fundraising effort with an ambitious goal: raise $10 million to expand and elevate the program’s impact for CLAS students.

Today, Beyond120 relies on a combination of state funding and annual giving. State support helps cover essentials—but private investment is what allows experiential learning to thrive, growing the opportunities that help students find direction, build skills, and connect their education to life beyond the classroom.

Why Your Support Matters

Spark Something will:

• Launch an endowment for Beyond120

An endowment provides stable, reliable funding year after year, strengthening long-term program support and ensuring Beyond120 can serve future generations of Gators.

• Expand student scholarships and reduce financial barriers

Scholarships and unrestricted support open doors for students who want to explore: internships, research, excursions, professional development, and more, regardless of their ability to pay.

Why Give?

We are grateful for the support of current and future donors to Beyond120 who provide transformative opportunities to our students for career growth and professional development. Whether you support internships, research, study abroad, mentorship, excursions, or other forms of experiential learning, you are contributing to the career readiness of the next generation of Gators and affirming the power of a modern liberal arts and sciences education.
