    There are various fundraising options for student organizations to earn money through the Santa Clara Fund:

    • Write thank-you letters to donors
    • Create a video about how your organization will benefit from the Santa Clara Fund
    • Propose your own idea

    An organization representative must attend a 30-minute workshop before proceeding with any of the above options. Completion of one of these options will occur according to a set timeline and later reviewed during a project workshop.
