The American Indian Resource Center (AIRC) is committed to fostering a strong sense of community, belonging, and visibility for Native and Indigenous students at UC Santa Cruz. With your support, we can continue offering vital programs and services that honor Indigenous identities, histories, and futures.

Your generosity helps fund cultural events, student leadership opportunities, educational workshops, and access to basic needs—all grounded in Indigenous values and traditions. It also enables us to offer mentorship, advocacy, and a welcoming space where students can thrive both academically and personally.

Why your gift matters

Every contribution helps sustain the AIRC’s mission of supporting Native student success while advancing Indigenous knowledge, community, and self-determination. Your support makes it possible for us to deepen our impact and reach more students.

Thanks to our donors, the AIRC remains a home away from home—where Native students can connect, grow, and feel seen.
