My story

 

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor Team UC online. We are running for the Allan Buch Memorial Scholarship Fund.

“I would not have been able to continue this amazing year without this grant.” Student from UC Santa Cruz studying at Durham, May 07

The University of California Trust (UK) created the Allan Buch Memorial Scholarship Fund in April 2005 to provide grants for students facing emergency financial hardship after they have arrived in the UK. The fund also supports students wishing to undertake scholarly, creative and community projects as well as internships. Since it was started, the fund has awarded 28 grants to students from all the UC campuses. Our vision is to help secure the future of the Education Abroad program in by ensuring that adequate financial support is available for UC students to study here.

"This money is a blessing.” Student from UC San Diego on the Fall Program, November 2006

Allan Buch was a pillar of the UC community in Great Britain and founded the Berkeley in Britain alumni group in 1990. He was also a superlative member of our board. Tragicallly, Allan died of cancer in 2005. Our scholarship fund is dedicated to his memory. We are thrilled that Allan's daughters Alex and Olivia are members of our team. We hope that you will support them and us in our 10k run for the Buch Fund. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: the  University of California Trust (UK) will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor us now! Many thanks for your support.
