CHALLENGE: Students Struggle to Meet Their Basic Needs

How can you help?
Give to the Annual Fund
Unrestricted gifts to the Annual Fund allow us to quickly address students’ basic needs that arise during the year. The 2019-20 Annual Fund covered no-cost Bay Transit student fares and shelves and freezers for the food pantries at our two campuses.
