About
One Day. One KUA. | November 12, 2026
For more than 200 years, Kimball Union Academy has brought people together. Students, alumni, parents, grandparents, siblings, faculty, staff and friends: whenever and however we came to the Hilltop, KUA is what connects us.
On November 12, the many generations of our community come together for one day to celebrate that connection. Some of us knew KUA decades ago, some of us know it today, and some of us are just beginning our KUA story. What we share is a place that has shaped lives for generations and will keep shaping them for generations to come.
Gifts to the KUA Fund help support every part of the student experience, from inspired teaching to spirited competition to creative expression. Every gift made now through November 12 counts toward our Day of Giving.
Our goal is 900 donors, a new KUA record. One gift makes a difference. Together, we make a lasting impact.
