A brief description of the institution’s program to support employee volunteering:
Here are a couple of UCSB's employee Community service initiatives:
UCSB’s United Way Campaign
Since 1923, the United Way of Santa Barbara County has been committed to making a difference in our community and working hard to ensure that contributions help local friends and neighbors in need. United Way of Santa Barbara County and its partners work to achieve community-driven 10-year goals, with a focus on the "United 2020 Goals": Education, Financial Stability, and Health.
At the conclusion of the 2022-2023 United Way Campaign, UC Santa Barbara employees gave over $85,000 in one-time donations and through ongoing payroll deductions. Taking advantage of the opportunity to contribute to their community, hundreds of UCSB's volunteers and donors gave money, made presentations that convinced others to join or make donations, and raised funds with candy grams and special events. UCSB's campaign is one of the largest in Santa Barbara County. http://www.ia.ucsb.edu/uw/
K-12 Outreach
The campus sponsors an extensive program of classroom presentations, tours, demonstrations, field trips, musical and dance performances, and other educational outreach efforts for K-12 schools.
For example, the Kids In Nature is an innovative and highly regarded program designed to enrich the learning experiences of underrepresented and under-served youth in our community with a yearlong dynamic combination of hands-on, inquiry-based, classroom activities, interactive custom-designed computer simulations, and field trips.
