Clark College Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

🚨 There’s still time to make twice the impact for Clark College students! 🚨

At ODEI, we’re building spaces where students from historically marginalized backgrounds feel seen, supported, and empowered to succeed. From Student Unions to Noche de Familia and Black Student & Family Night—your gift makes it happen.

🎉 And right now, your donation will be DOUBLED up to $500 thanks to remaining match funds!

Let’s keep the momentum going—give now and help us build a more inclusive campus for all.

🌟 It’s Penguins Give Day! Double the Impact, Double the Change! 🐧💙

At the Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, we know that community and belonging are more than just words—they’re the foundation of student success. 💬✨

Today, you have the power to transform lives. Your gift supports programs that create safe, empowering spaces—like our Student Unions, where students find advocacy and lifelong friendships, and special events like Noche de Familia and Black Student & Family Night, which open the doors of our campus to future Penguins and their families. 🫂🎓

And here's the exciting part—your donation will be MATCHED, dollar-for-dollar! That means twice the support, twice the impact. 💥

Join us in building a campus where every student feels seen, heard, and celebrated. 💛
Donate now and help shape a future full of equity, inclusion, and boundless opportunity.
