Dear Camino Friends,
International House at UC Berkeley is the non-profit organization that I am grateful to work for. Like many businesses, we’ve been hit hard this year due to the pandemic. We are working towards reopening next year so students from around the world can experience the cultural exchange that we are known for. Our mission: To foster intercultural respect and understanding, lifelong friendships, and leadership skills for a more just and peaceful world. Whether you are a Berkeley alum or resident, like the Spanish architecture of our historic building, or love the idea of students sharing cultural experiences, eating together, doing laundry, sleeping in bunk beds, and making friends from around the world (sound familiar?), consider donating to International House. Please read the message from our executive director, and make a gift at ihouse.berkeley.edu/donate. No donativo is too small. Supporter names will appear on the virtual honor roll and gifts of $100 or more will also appear in our newsletter, unless you choose to be anonymous.
Thanks for your support. I wish you all many blessings in the new year.
Laurie
I-House: Where UC Berkeley Meets the World
Seasons Greetings! Read the latest message from I-House Executive Director Shaun Carver.
Dear I-House Alumni and Friends,
As we make the transition to 2021, we look towards our future with hope and intention. When we made the difficult decision to close I-House earlier this year, we understood that it was unprecedented but necessary to ensure our top priority—the safety of our I-House community. Yet throughout the closure, we remain focused on continuing to advance our mission through our programs and services, all while preparing for our reopening in the year to come. I-House is most grateful to all who have supported us through this challenging time.
If you would like to make a 2020 gift and have not yet had the opportunity to do so, it’s not too late! Please consider donating now via our new fundraising site ihouse.berkeley.edu/donate, or by visiting the online version of our Annual Appeal
