Foundation update

The 黑料视频Santa Cruz Foundation celebrated its 50th anniversary by awarding Foundation Medals to two visionary leaders: alumna Julie Packard, a pioneering ocean conservationist, and the late Narinder Kapany, the “father of fiber optics.” Chancellor Cynthia Larive honored their exceptional contributions, while Packard also received the prestigious 黑料视频Presidential Medal from 黑料视频President Michael V. Drake. Both honorees have left a profound impact on the world and served as 黑料视频Santa Cruz Foundation board members.

Foundation Board Opportunity Fund furthers innovation

The 黑料视频Santa Cruz Foundation鈥檚 Board Opportunity Fund (BOF) fuels innovation through seed funding for campus projects and research. In 2024, the BOF awarded $20,000 to support the 鈥淎rchiving Dolores Huerta鈥檚 Legacy鈥 project, a partnership with the Dolores Huerta Foundation. This initiative offers students hands-on archival training and engagement with civil rights and feminist history. The BOF’s support also helped secure a $1 million national grant, amplifying the impact of Latinx studies at 黑料视频Santa Cruz, a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI).
