Giving Tuesday - one of the biggest fundraising days for nonprofits is tomorrow! As I reflect on my journey as a third-year electrical engineering and computer sciences (EECS) student at UC Berkeley, I’m reminded of the incredible nonprofit organizations that helped me get here. Four nonprofits in particular stand out—not only for their impact on me personally but for their transformative work in San Francisco. @missionbit, @SEO_Scholars_SF, @operationstart_, and @sfedfund. Each of these nonprofits plays a unique role in empowering youth, bridging divides, and building brighter futures. Supporting our communities isn’t just important—it’s our responsibility. Tomorrow, I encourage you to learn about these organizations, their missions, and the lives they’re transforming. 📌 Explore and support their incredible work: Mission Bit: lnkd.in/g9FB4qqa SEO Scholars San Francisco: lnkd.in/gR-CC6sq OperationSTART: lnkd.in/g65aFmgE SF Education Fund: lnkd.in/gyPZkxQM Your contribution isn’t just a donation—it’s a promise.
