About - University of Cincinnati Foundation

The UC Foundation was established in 1975 as a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation and has the Internal Revenue Service identification number 31-0896555. Gifts to the University of Cincinnati and UC Health through the Foundation are tax-deductible to the full extent provided by law.
