Empower Black Scholars at CPP

At Cal Poly Pomona, the Black Achievement Success and Engagement in Science (BASES) Scholars Program is more than just a scholarship—it’s a movement. By providing financial, academic, and mentorship resources, BASES creates a strong foundation for student success from day one. Your support fuels a vibrant community where scholars receive the guidance, tools, and opportunities they need to thrive. Together, we can ensure that Black excellence is celebrated, supported, and sustained on our campus.

Your gift today will directly enhance the BASES experience—funding scholarships, expanding mentorship programs, and creating enriching opportunities like educational excursions and community-building events. Donations will also help build scholar pride through branded apparel and materials, fostering a strong sense of identity and belonging. Every dollar makes a difference in shaping future leaders in science and beyond. Join us in empowering the next generation—make your gift today!
