Give to African American Studies
Why Give?
Your support allows our department to continue providing the transformational student-centered programming and groundbreaking research that is central to our mission. Gifts to the Annual Fund provide students with the resources needed to succeed in college and their career, such as mentorship opportunities, travel learning experiences, and opportunities to conduct research. Your gift supports a vibrant intellectual community with visiting scholars and guest speakers, community-engaged programming, and faculty research.
With the first Ph.D. program in African Diaspora Studies, our department is widely considered one of the most prestigious in the country. Beyond our department, signature programs such as Black Graduation and our community partnerships extend our reach to the campus and local communities.
Gifts from our alumni and friends will ensure that the Department of African American Studies remains one of the most distinguished in the world, and the full impact of your gift is felt within the department. Thank you for demonstrating your commitment to African American Studies at UC Berkeley.
