We Did It! Thank you!

November 13, 2025

Dear UCLA Samueli Community,

Thanks to YOU, we had our most successful Blue & Gold Challenge ever! We rallied 52 donors (over 2x the original goal of 25) and raised $10,965 to support the UCLA Samueli Fund, which provides vital resources that support all Bruin engineers — like us. 

Your generosity makes it possible for us to succeed as students and pursue our dreams as future professional engineers.

Thank you all again so much, and Go Bruins!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

November 04, 2025

Hi everyone! We’re thrilled to share that just three days into the Blue and Gold Challenge, we’ve hit our goal of 25 donors for the UCLA Samueli Fund! Thank you to everyone who has given so far. 

Your generosity and support mean so much to us, and will ensure that our Dean can continue to address emerging school-wide needs and support the many programs that serve our community. Your contribution helps students like us fully immerse ourselves in hands-on learning, research, and solving challenges beyond the classroom. 

Even though we've surpassed our goal — there's still 4 days left in the Challenge, so let's keep the momentum going and see how much more we can raise for the UCLA Samueli Fund! If you're interested, please help us continue to spread the word by sharing our campaign with your friends, family, and fellow Bruin Engineers! https://crowdfunding.ucla.edu/samuelifund

Once again, thank you all so much, and Go Bruins!
