San Francisco State University, Hospitality and Tourism Management

We are celebrating San Francisco State’s Giving Day on Wednesday, March 18 and we are asking you to help Hospitality, Tourism & Event Management students reach their full potential 💜💛

Your support on Gator Giving Day helps strengthen one of the most impactful hands-on learning experiences at San Francisco State University—the Hospitality, Tourism and Event Management Department and our student-run restaurant, The Vista Room.

This year, we are raising funds to purchase an automatic espresso machine that will modernize our beverage training and give students valuable experience in barista service, café operations, and fine dining.

Your gift will:
Enhance hands-on learning opportunities for students

Elevate the dining experience at The Vista Room

Prepare HTEM students for successful careers in the evolving hospitality industry

Every contribution—no matter the amount—brings us closer to our $2,000 goal.

Help us brew stronger careers, richer learning experiences, and a more vibrant campus dining environment.
Please consider making a gift today.

Thank you for supporting the HTEM Department—Go Gators!🐊
