Celebrating the advent of its third decade, California State University Channel Islands (CSUCI) invites you to leave your mark while supporting our university, its programs and our students in a memorable way. Share with future generations your part in the developing story of CSUCI through pavers, benches, and trees. Your support will renovate open spaces on campus while helping students to achieve their fullest potential.
Adopt a Tree - Beginning at $3,000
The CSUCI campus stewards over 1,600 trees, earning the University a Tree Campus USA designation for the 12th year in a row. From Jacarandas to Oaks, each tree enhances our campus' natural beauty - providing shade and gathering spaces for students, faculty, and community members in the present, while creating an opportunity for an enduring gift for future generations. The name of your choice will be placed on a plaque located at the base of either a new or mature tree in recognition of your gift. To ensure ongoing sustainability practices are adhered to, tree selection must be approved by campus staff.
