A Message From Jamie Askari
Hi everyone!
I am excited to announce that this year I have joined Unicamp, a nonprofit organization and the official charity of UCLA that connects student volunteers (like me!) from UCLA with kids from underserved areas in LA. Our goal is to give the kids a fun and transformative week of camp over the summer. I am very fortunate in that I was actually able to go to summer camp growing up, and it was one of the most magical experiences I had as a kid. Because of this, I sincerely believe that camp is something that every kid should be able to experience.
To send one kid up to camp, it costs $650. While some of this is covered, most of it needs to be raised by us volunteers. This means I have to raise $500 by the summer, and need your help to do it. Most of us are broke, but even a donation as small as $2-3 would really mean a lot to me. My love comes pretty cheap, and donations are tax deductible!
You can donate here or to me directly via cash or Venmo:

Every donation comes with an appreciation post on FB, and pretty much anything else you might want (embarrassing snapchats, brownies, etc.) as long as its not too unreasonable and won't lead me to a lifetime of regrets.
Thank you so much,
Juice (aka. Jamie)
