University of California (System). Gifts and Endowment Office.

The University of California has received donations since its very inception in 1868; annual reports of gifts appeared in the reports of the president and for a period in specially produced publications. These volumes, entitled "Record of donation," were first assembled in 1940 by the Office of the Controller. In 1959 the Gifts and Endowments Office in the University's systemwide assumed responsibility for compiling these reports.
