Dear Chicanx Latinx Cal Alumni, Students, and Friends,

 

Happy #GivingTuesday 2022! With the approaching end of 2022, we extend our gratitude to you over the last 38 years of UCB CLAA’s existence. As a grassroots organization managed by a Board of alumni volunteers, we rely on all of you to live out our mission, “...[engage] current and prospective alumni with UC Berkeley communities and each other to elevate the tradition of academic and professional excellence.” 

 

This year, we were able to award over 40 scholarships to current Cal undergraduate and graduate students, and it was all possible to the valuable contributions of our alumni, partners and friends. We were also able to host, co-host and/or facilitate:

 
  • 4 New Student Yield Receptions and Events to welcome newly admitted Latinx students and their familias

  • 3 Summer Welcome Parties for incoming students and their families

  • 1 Community Inclusion Summit and Career Fair in partnership with the Cal Career Center

  • The second Latinx Legacy Weekend bringing over 500 alumni, students and friends to honor our past, present and future

  • Our Conexiones de Cal Mentoring program where we matched alumni with current students

 

Our chapters have also worked diligently to bring local alumni to their area opportunities for networking, learning and connecting through our Cal spirit. We were also proud to launch the first ever UCB CLAA Strategic Plan to help us focus and maximize our impact as an alumni association. 

 

We invite you to continue to join us in our mission as Chicanx Latinx alumni and consider making a donation to UCB CLAA for our Scholarship Fund during Giving Tuesday. Every contribution is valued and allows us to move closer to our goal of further increasing our scholarship awards and programmatic efforts for Cal Bears. You can also support UCB CLAA when shopping on Amazon by using the AmazonSmile Link: http://smile.amazon.com/ch/47-1688249


We thank you in advance, and wish you and your loved ones a healthy, prosperous and joyous holiday season. 


En comunidad,

Board of Directors de UCB CLAA

Opportunities

Become a Mentor

with Conexiones de CAL


We have established a new mentorship program, Conexiones de CAL, with campus partners. Its purpose is to serve Chicanx/Latinx-identifying students, many of whom are first-gen and/or low-income, and provide them with peer mentorship during their time here at Cal.

We are currently recruiting mentors for the program. Practitioners and other experts in the field are welcome! Mentors who can meet with our students a few times throughout the semester and over the summer as they work on projects would provide professional and educational advice to these students through the length of the mentorship.

If you are interested in being a mentor or know of other Cal Alums who are, please sign up!
Mentor with CLAA!

Volunteer with CLAA

UCB CLAA has various opportunities for Cal alumni to stay connected. If you are interested in volunteering, including but not limited to hosting a workshop, being a speaker, or volunteering at events. Please fill out the interest form and our office team reach out to you.
