Cal Poly Cares is a program that addresses students' unexpected, urgent needs and provides immediate monetary assistance. When disaster strikes, when students need extra help to cover rent or buy critical supplies, when they just need a helping hand— they turn to Cal Poly Cares.
An anonymous Cal Poly Parent has generously donated $50,000 to create a Cal Poly Cares endowment. This Poly Gives, be a part of a historic effort to future-proof Cal Poly Cares and make sure funds are available to students for the next emergency by making a gift to this new Cal Poly Cares endowment.
