On November 2, 2022 UC Santa Cruz will host its annual Giving Day campaign, a 24-hour online fundraising event.
Sociology@UCSantaCruz is proud to announce four scholarships raising money to support our students and their continued work in challenging dominant norms and structures. Can’t decide which to donate to? Choose our general fund.
Incentives to give include matching funds: if you are interested in matching funds for specific scholarships, please email sociology@ucsc.edu. Challenges throughout the day will reward teams attracting the greatest number of donors during specific times. Campus events including accepting cash donations, of any amount, on day-of are planned for Quarry Plaza.
Stay tuned for the daily schedule! Follow Sociology@UCSantaCruz on Twitter or Facebook and help spread the word about all of our scholarships using the hashtag #give2UCSC on social media.
