UMassGives 2023
Make a gift to the CICS Experiential Learning Fund
This year, any gift made to the Experiential Learning Fund will help us reach our goal of 100 individual donors to unlock a matching gift of $10,000 from a longtime supporter of our college.
Our 19 student organizations, all student-led, include hackathons, organizations for women, students of color, and LGBTQ+ students, as well as clubs focusing on community outreach, data science, product management, robotics, and more. Each organization gives CICS students opportunities to build technical, leadership, and professional skills through experiential learning.
Your 2023 UMassGives gift will give our students life experiences that are proven to bring them success. When you Give Happy this year, you help our students:
- Travel to regional and national competitions
- Purchase equipment and tech for hands-on activities
- Gain career-focused skills in product management, mobile app development, and more
- Host conferences with luminaries from our alumni and beyond
- Build community through outreach, networking, and social events
Support the next generation of leaders in the field and the growth of our college as an inclusive community dedicated to computing for the common good. Please give happy and join us in supporting UMassGives 2023 with a gift of any amount.
