Our Crowdfunding Groups
The Alumni Mentor Program, powered by the UCLA Alumni Association, provides students the opportunity to form meaningful and lasting relationships with alumni mentors around the world who help students build their professional network and offer important career insights. UCLA students are receiving a world-class education, but there is often a hidden curriculum when it comes to navigating career development. Support the Alumni Mentor Program as they set students up for success through meaningful mentorship connections, career readiness resources, and expanded programming.
Our Bruins need extra support to explore career paths, get an internship, and land a job. Students need the industry knowledge and career insights of an alumni mentor. Mentorship builds confidence to navigate life after graduation, and alumni mentors can make a huge difference in our students’ career readiness. By supporting the Alumni Mentor Program, you are making it possible for more students to take advantage of mentorship opportunities with Bruins who have gone before them and can guide them along their path to graduation and into the workforce.
Today's candidate-driven job market means that Bruins have no shortage of professional opportunities at their fingertips. The Alumni Mentor Program equips students with the tools and relationships to identify the opportunities that excite them and forge a path toward obtaining their ideal job or internship. Pairing up with a mentor means students don't have to go it alone; their mentor will be right alongside them with valuable insights, support and connections.
Your donation will help fuel the growth of the Alumni Mentor Program by offering practical professional development resources, expanding the program's reach to engage more students across campus, and enhancing programmatic offerings to include career exploration events with UCLA alumni.
Thank you for helping the Alumni Mentor Program give students the confidence to navigate their careers. Your generosity gives the next generation of Bruin graduates the connections and resources they need to reach the top of their professional field.
