Parent Executive Board
About the Parent Executive Board
The UCI Parent Executive Board (PEB) is a select group of parents that provide and facilitate leadership-level philanthropic support and resources for the university as well as promote activities that enrich the Anteater student experience.
Members serve as trusted advisors to university leadership on student life initiatives, provide feedback on current issues facing UC Irvine, act as well-informed representatives of the UC Irvine parent and student experience and spearhead the efforts of the Anteater Grant Initiative: a fund dedicated to supporting the growth of student programs and opportunities.
Meet the Co-Chairs
“As parents navigating the distance from our home state, our involvement in the Parent Executive Board has woven an inspiring connection. We’ve cherished the invaluable chance to engage with fellow UCI parents and the partnerships PEB brings across campus allowing us to make a meaningful difference in areas close to our hearts. Together, we are not just observers but active contributors to the vibrant spirit that defines the Anteater experience.”

- $3,500 toward the Anteater Grant Initiative and $1,500 toward any area on campus meaningful to you
