UC San Diego offers students the chance to live in International House (I-House), a wonderfully vibrant on-campus community dedicated to the promotion of international awareness and intercultural understanding at UC San Diego and around the world. Roughly 260 people from over 30 countries choose to make I-House their home each year. I-House sponsors many programs, including I-Cares. I-Cares is the volunteer service club within the I-House community. Previous I-Cares projects have included on-campus projects, projects based in the San Diego community, and some projects based in Mexico. Past events include Green Week (environmental sustainability), trips to an orphanage in Mexico, and tutoring local high school students. I-House also has numerous sustainable features throughout the personal and communal spaces.
