Mission and programs · 2023

• ATHLETICS EXPENSES PAID IN SUPPORT OF THE UCF ATHLETICS PROGRAM AND THE CHARGEON FUND PROVIDE STUDENT-ATHLETES WITH CHAMPIONSHIP-CALIBER EXPERIENCES, EMPOWERING THEM TO EXCEL IN COMPETITION, IN THE CLASSROOM, AND IN THE COMMUNITY. FROM ACADEMIC SUPPORT TO WORLD-CLASS TRAINING FACILITIES AND SERVICES, THE KNIGHTS BENEFIT GREATLY FROM PHILANTHROPY. IN FY24 ALONE, TWO SIGNIFICANT ALUMNI GIFTS RESULTED IN AN ADDITIONAL $11.5 MILLION IN CRITICAL FUNDING FOR UCF ATHLETICS AND A NEW 95-ACRE SPACE ON CAMPUS THAT WILL BE DEDICATED TO THE HEALTH AND WELLBEING, ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF STUDENT ATHLETES, AS WELL AS ATHLETIC COMPETITION. UCF STUDENT-ATHLETES CONTINUED TO EXCEL IN THEIR ACADEMICS, EXTENDING THEIR RECORD-SETTING STREAK TO 33 CONSECUTIVE SEMESTERS WITH A DEPARTMENT GRADE-POINT AVERAGE OF 3.0 OR BETTER AT THE END OF THE SPRING 2024 SEMESTER INCLUDING 10 STRAIGHT SEMESTERS WITH A 3.3 OR HIGHER MARK. THE KNIGHTS COMPILED A COMBINED 3.42 GPA IN THE SPRING 2024 SEMESTER AND MORE THAN 75% OF STUDENT-ATHLETES POSTED A GPA OF 3.0 OR HIGHER, 63 OF WHICH EARNED A 4.0 GPA.

• ACADEMIC EXPENSES PAID IN SUPPORT OF THE UCF PROGRAMS FUND ACADEMIC OFFERINGS, SALARIES FOR UNIVERSITY EMPLOYEES AND FELLOWSHIPS TO REWARD SOME OF UCF'S MOST ACCOMPLISHED AND PROMISING STUDENTS. OUTSTANDING FACULTY ARE CRITICAL TO INSTITUTIONAL EXCELLENCE, INSPIRING STUDENTS AND FOSTERING AND ENHANCING STRONG ACADEMIC PROGRAMS. BY FUNDING PRESTIGIOUS ACADEMIC POSITIONS AT THE UNIVERSITY SUCH AS ENDOWED CHAIRS, EMINENT SCHOLAR POSITIONS AND DISTINGUISHED PROFESSORSHIPS, WE RETAIN THE UNIVERSITY'S MOST ESTEEMED FACULTY AND IN TURN, MAINTAIN OUR HIGH ACADEMIC STANDARD. SPENDING TO SUPPORT RESEARCH PROJECTS AND INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS FURTHER ENRICHES THE UCF LEARNING EXPERIENCE. UCF FOUNDATION, INC. RECEIVED $104,403,814 IN GIFTS AND COMMITMENTS IN FY24 FAR EXCEEDING THE GOAL SET BY UNIVERSITY LEADERS. THIS REPRESENTED THE SUPPORT OF MORE THAN 87,000 DONORS WHO GAVE 237,390 GIFTS.

As filed on the 2023 return. The filer continues this part on Schedule O, which is not shown here. A text marked withheld matched a screen for wording that may name a private individual, such as an honorific or "in memory of". Most of what it withholds names no one; it is withheld so that what does is never shown.

Officers and directors · 2023

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.
