A Note on Donations
We do not use crowdfunding sites because they take 5-9% of proceeds. We spend zero dollars on admin, aggregate donations and make sure every penny goes directly to buying students the essentials they need. My family makes up any shortfall in funding. This is a 100% grassroots volunteer effort.
If your company can donate in bulk please email taniaksuster@gmail.com
If you prefer to donate directly to UCLA and receive a tax receipt please do! These funds will not be used in our efforts but will go to valuable social work programs including scholarships, study groups, financial and logistical support of students.
