Honor the Future by Giving Back

Why give? Because you care. Because it deepens your connection to the greater Cal community. And because your support makes a powerful difference in the lives of alumni and students.

The CAA Fund

When you give to The CAA Fund, your gift goes where the need is the greatest. As a cornerstone of CAA, this fund supports essential services for alumni, students, and the future of UC Berkeley.

Help Fund Scholarships

Your support is invaluable to Cal undergrads. The Alumni Scholarships Program helps lift the heavy burden of paying for a college education and provides programs that ensure students feel at home at Berkeley.
