News & Publications
The UCF Foundation produces several print and electronic pieces to inform and educate donors, alumni, friends and corporate partners about the good work being done at UCF every day.
Pegasus Magazine
Pegasus Magazine is a quarterly alumni magazine published by UCF Marketing in partnership with the UCF Foundation, Inc. and the UCF Office of Alumni Engagement and Annual Giving. Its goals are to accelerate the UCF connection, remind readers what they love about UCF, and bring the campus to the reader. It is sent to all UCF alumni who wish to stay connected to the university. An online version is available as well.
Impact Magazine
IMPACT, the magazine of the UCF Foundation, celebrates the commitment of those who choose to support UCF; explores the ways in which our generosity and vision benefit our students, our university, our community and the world; and considers broader questions and issues related to philanthropy today. Print copies are mailed to a large donor group. A flipbook version is available in our publications archive here.
Annual Report
Our annual report is an award-winning publication that goes beyond financial reporting. Unique donor stories spotlight the many reasons why people give to the university and inspire others to do the same. All donors above a certain level, plus all UCF employees, receive a print version of the report; an electronic version is also available.
