Get ready for the Big Give: Ways to Join Now
Big Give is tomorrow but you can get a head start on making your donation TONIGHT at 9 pm PST!
We are in the final countdown for UC Berkeley’s Big Give, a 24-hour online fundraising blitz. All online donations made to International House between 9 pm PST on Wednesday, November 16 and 9 pm PST on Thursday, November 17 make a huge impact!
Last year we raised $24,500 during the Big Give. We are grateful for the outpouring of support. Let’s aim higher in 2016.
Resident Morgan Randall made the drawing of I-House and produced the time lapse video for Big Give.

Big Give I-House Alumni Contest
One lucky I-House alum who donates on Big Give day will win a detailed portrait drawn by I-House resident Morgan Randall, who made the beautiful drawing of I-House featured in the video above.
Contest details: Winner will be selected after 11/18 and contacted by phone or email. If the winner is local, they can meet Morgan at I-House for a portrait session. If they live elsewhere, they can provide a photo for him and the finished portrait will be mailed to the winner. This is Morgan’s last semester before he graduates so the deadline for portrait session is December 10th.
For more ways to participate, see ihouse.berkeley.edu/biggive.
Big thanks for all of your support! ♥
