In fiscal year 2023, more than 11,000 Charter Hill Society households donated over $500 million to UC Berkeley.

The society is uniquely powerful in its impact on the university, much like the hill for which the society is named located just above California Memorial Stadium and providing a majestic view of the UC Berkeley campus, San Francisco Bay, and the Golden Gate Bridge.
