"The University of California, San Diego has been successful in creating unique strategies and opportunities to inspire philanthropy, even in 20-year-olds. In 1999, the university launched its Student Foundation, the first student-oriented philanthropic organization established within the UC system, and today it is one of just a few in the nation.

“Students are the life blood of a university, so engaging them at this level is a big plus,” said Marlene Shaver, assistant vice chancellor who oversees the UCSD Student Foundation. “The student-foundation model provides a path for students to become deeply involved in private philanthropy efforts on behalf of the university.”"
