Our Crowdfunding Groups
The Westside Bruins vision is founded upon four pillars:
We bring alumni together, build future leaders and give back to the campus through mentorship and scholarship.
The Westside Bruins host numerous events ranging from game watch parties, networking events, community service activities and interacting with campus groups.
In addition to the events above, annually we host and participate in several signature events: New Bruin Sendoff, UCLA Volunteer Day, UCLA/USC Toy Drive and the All PAC-12 Pub Crawl.
For several years now the Westside Bruin has raised enough funds to sponsor an alumni scholar. The 2015-16 Westside Alumni Scholar is Caterina Kachadoorian. She is member of the class of 2019, a psychobiology major and from Santa Monica. Caterina was extremely grateful for the scholarship so that she could fulfill her dream of coming to UCLA and being a guiding light for her younger siblings! Caterina, you’re welcome and you make the Westside Bruins proud!
