Alumni Association
Over 65,000 alumni and counting.
You can support two areas within the Alumni Association: The Alumni Association Scholarship or `Runner Alumni Mentor Program (RAMP).
- The CSUB Alumni Association awards scholarships to CSUB graduates pursuing their graduate degree on campus. The Alumni Scholarship Endowment was established in 1990 with a gift of $5,000 and has now reached more than $220,000. This year, the Alumni Associations awarded $25,000 to 17 recipients. Recipients have high GPAs and demonstrate commitment to their campus and community. They succeed in a variety of fields, including education, business, counseling, nursing, social work and more.
- Through RAMP, CSUB alumni and other professionals are paired with juniors, seniors and graduate students who need help with such things as choosing a career path, drafting a resume, interviewing for jobs and networking. Research shows that mentorships are critical to helping students thrive during and after.
By supporting the CSUB Alumni Association, you support current and future alumni!

Basic Needs Challenge
The Basic Needs Program at CSUB supports the Food Pantry and Edible Garden. Past Research shows that over 40% of students are food insecure and that food insecurity is associated with a number of outcomes that conflict with academic success. By raising funds to support the program, this will greatly help with mitigating these challenges. An anonymous donor has generously offered to give $1,000 when we reach at least 30 donors who give at least $8 or more to celebrate the eighth anniversary of this program.
