About UC Press Foundation

The UC Press Foundation is solely dedicated to supporting the work of University of California Press. Sales revenue and university subsidy are not sufficient to cover UC Press's annual expenses, let alone to fund new initiatives. Private giving, spearheaded by the UC Press Foundation and its Board of Trustees, fills the critical gap.

The UC Press Foundation's support enhances UC Press's ability to:
  • Discover, develop, and disseminate influential ideas and scholarship to growing audiences.
  • Sustain its commitment to intellectual integrity and publishing of the highest caliber.
  • Embark on new and expanded initiatives such as digital publishing.
