Pay It Forward: Make a gift of support to the UCLA Spark crowdfunding drive

The UCLA Volunteer Center is excited to participate in the launch of UCLA Spark, an online crowdfunding platform that allows multiple donors to contribute small amounts towards a specific project. Their goal is to raise $15,000 by March 19th to fund ten "One Bus, One Cause" projects. With your donation, volunteers can serve our community, cover the cost of transportation to service sites, and provide supplies for landscaping, painting, general service work, and interactive mentorship projects. 

The Westwood Village Improvement Association supports the UCLA Volunteer Center in its goal of helping UCLA students learn important skills, including time management, leadership, and team building. These qualities extend beyond one-time volunteerism and lead to lifelong engagement in  communities. The experiences earned through the UCLA Volunteer Center are valuable for current and future generations, offering a way to give back to the community, to inspire, and to create social change. 

How can you help? Make a donation today, every bit counts. Each donation tier specifies where and how your donation has contributed to the project. So, dig in, give by the gallon, sponsor a volunteer or leave your mark today! 

$10 Dig In
Donations of $10 go to providing a shovel to one volunteer.

$25 Give by the Gallon
Donations of $25 go to a gallon of paint for school beautification projects.

$50 Sponsor a Volunteer
Donations of $50 will help send one volunteer.

$100 Leave Your Mark
