The CAA Fund

Creating a Lasting Connection to Cal

A cornerstone of the Cal Alumni Association (CAA), The CAA Fund significantly affects vital services for alumni, students, and the future of the University. CAA is a self-funded 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that relies on contributions to operate its programs and provide scholarships to Cal students. Your annual investment in The CAA Fund ensures that we actively and effectively inform, involve, and inspire all alumni to stay connected to the University and to each other.
