Reflecting On Last Year - Thank You!

February 22, 2023

As we look back on last year, we are so grateful for your support. Thanks to your generosity, the outstanding 2022 winter cohort directed $100,000 in donor-provided funds to three Los Angeles-based non-profit organizations, supporting housing and community aid:

  • Skid Row Housing Trust
  • Proyecto Pastoral at Dolores Mission
  • Flintridge Center

These awards have made a difference. In return they have also served as an invaluable educational tool for our students, igniting life-long philanthropic interest at an early age.

In the past 10 years, PACE students have donated over $900,000 in donor contributed funds to 31 organizations. As our new year begins, consider the opportunity to support this year’s class as we aim to meet and surpass the $1,000,000 milestone. Thank you again, this endeavor would not be possible without you.

Thank You and Happy Holidays!

December 30, 2019

As we get ready to welcome the New Year and close out UCLA's Centennial Campaign on December 31, we want to thank you for your generosity in support of Philanthropy Education at UCLA. Because of your passion, commitment and enthusiastic giving we look forward to welcoming a new cohort of outstanding students for winter quarter. Next year will be particularly exciting thanks to a generous $85,000 gift from Women & Philanthropy. The funds are intended as seed money to start an endowment that will in perpetuity support future funds for students to experience the unique world of non-profits and philanthropy. This is truly a transformative course, and we're so grateful you are a part of our community. Happy New Year!
