Words from CAA Volunteers and Donors

  • "The opportunity, the access that Berkeley provides for students is tremendous. It makes me very proud that because of TAAP, so many students at Berkeley were the first in their family to go to college... I hope that everyone will feel as though they can give back to TAAP in some way."

    Sheryl Wong ’67

  • "Cal changed my life, and I wanted to help others have the same experience I had there... Every day I’m inspired by our students. And when I talk to TAAP donors, that is the word they use too—inspiration. They understand that continuing to support these scholars is important. I mean, why else are we here, but to help others have the same opportunities we had?"

    Michael Trevino ’89
