Our Crowdfunding Groups
UCLA attracts some of the most brilliant and driven students, each bringing exceptional academic achievements and a deep commitment to making a difference. Our student body is not only academically outstanding, but also incredibly diverse, with many being the first in their families to attend college. These remarkable individuals overcome challenges, break barriers, and go on to lead in their fields and communities. The level of talent, determination, and passion among our students makes UCLA a place where the next generation of leaders and innovators is truly cultivated.
Nearly half of UCLA students rely on financial aid, but even with scholarships and grants, there is often a gap that requires them to take on loans or part-time jobs. This financial burden can prevent students from fully immersing themselves in the college experience or developing professionally. Your support closes that gap, giving students the chance to thrive.
Your gift has the power to influence the trajectory of an individual's life, illuminating paths forward and unlocking new opportunities. At UCLA, we see every day how access to higher education empowers individuals. The positive impact of a college experience continues to shape individuals, inspire change and cultivate role models within families, communities, and society.
Your generosity transforms lives at UCLA and nurtures hope for tomorrow. Each dollar you contribute alleviates the rising cost of living, empowering students to immerse themselves fully in their education and explore their passions.
Together, we cultivate a generation of leaders who will inspire hope and drive positive change for a brighter tomorrow.. 
UCLA proudly holds its position as the No. 1 public university by ensuring that deserving students, regardless of their financial circumstances, can pursue a world-class education. We enroll more low-income students than all Ivy League schools combined and have the highest graduation rate for first-generation freshmen among UC campuses.
Through the Affordability Initiative, UCLA is working toward a bold goal: to provide a debt-free education for all students by 2030. Your gift directly supports this mission, ensuring that bright, driven students can focus on their studies without the burden of financial strain. This isn’t just about covering tuition; it’s about giving students the freedom to pursue their passions and create a better future.
By contributing, you become part of a community dedicated to creating a brighter future for our students, their families, and our communities.
