“All parents know that our work is never done,” says Mark Santora, parent of two recently graduated UCI students. He and his wife, Kathleen, have stayed engaged as donors and advocates of the university years after their children graduated, Kevin in 2010 and Kristen in 2014.
“UCI enabled our son and daughter to grow and mature through new and varied experiences in a safe, competitive and independent setting,” says Mark Santora. “We chose to get involved to show our appreciation and gratitude.”
As parents of a former captain of the NCCA Division 1 men’s soccer team, their decision to give back to UCI Athletics was simple.
