Big Thanks for Supporting I-House During Big Give

March 11, 2022
Shaun R. Carver, I-House Executive Director
We’re grateful to all of you who participated in this year’s “Big Give” fundraising event for I-House and other programs and colleges across the UC Berkeley campus. More than 170 I-House residents, alumni, and friends made gifts to support I-House and our mission. And because so many of you chipped in, you’ve also unlocked both a $1,500 challenge gift from Cal and a $10,000 challenge gift from the I-House Board of Directors! Please watch this message of thanks from I-House Board Member Bukola Mabadeje.
