The Campaign for UB
Improve
Our World
Here, we proudly fuel the creation and growth of vibrant, modern, healthy and inclusive communities in Buffalo and around the globe.
From promoting clean air in Buffalo to documenting vanishing languages in Cameroon, UB’s impact is felt in every neighborhood throughout Western New York, and on every continent around the globe.
Buffalo: Our Home, Our Town, Our Pride
Walk down any street in Buffalo, and you will quickly see evidence of UB’s unequaled impact—from new buildings and jobs to healthier children and happier families. We are proud to be fully invested in the City of Good Neighbors, and we will continue to strengthen the economy and improve life in communities throughout Western New York.
Learning Locally, Sharing Globally
The challenges facing Buffalo—from health inequities and infant mortality to limited employment opportunities and aging infrastructure—are not unique to our region. So, as we put our research and knowledge to work right here in Buffalo, we also advance our research worldwide, taking what we learn here and scaling it up to share around the world.
