Big Give: 24 Hours to Support the Cal Alumni Association

A gift to the Cal Alumni Association (CAA) during Big Give ensures that Cal alumni and students can continue connecting to UC Berkeley through meaningful experiences.

The 2023 Big Give has now ended.

Thank you for your continued support of CAA’s programming and the Cal community.

What Is Big Give?

Every year, the Cal Alumni Association joins our campus in Big Give, UC Berkeley’s annual day of giving. Support from alumni and friends like you furthers our mission to provide programs and resources for UC Berkeley alumni, students, and friends.

CAA Programs' Impact

  • “This [Cal Discoveries Travel] trip renewed my zest for life after two years of quarantine.”

    Christine F.

  • “[Through the Cal Alumni Mentors program] we’re creating a cycle of community and enhancing relationships across the globe for folks that may not have ever been able to meet each other.”

    Jason Gant ’09

  • “[The Lair] is my favorite place on the planet—it is where I met my wife and many of my friends, and a longtime family vacation that will always be special.”

Your Donation to the Cal Alumni Association Makes a BIG Difference

Through the donations of CAA friends like you, the Lair was able to build 10 winterized cabins in 2022 so that campers can gather at the Lair year-round. Your gift today can support more community-building programs that bring UC Berkeley alumni, students, and friends together.

Your gifts helped make it possible for CAA to reopen many of its programs at their pre-pandemic capacity, including Cal Discoveries Travel. Your gift can further our efforts to connect alumni with meaningful educational experiences and events.

The support of our donors and volunteers enabled the 2022 launch of the Cal Alumni Mentors program, which paired more than 250 undergrads with alumni mentors. Help our 2023 plans to expand the Cal Alumni Mentorship program and other student resources.
