What is it?!

The DREAM-A-THON is the first walk-a-thon event in support of AB540 students. ALL registration money/donations collected will go to event expenses (ex. give-a-ways, food, t-shirts, entertainment, etc.) and the CSUF AB540 Book Scholarship.

But wait…who are AB540 students?!

Undocumented students who are allowed to pay in-state tuition fees at higher education institutions, but do not qualify for financial aid. These students struggle paying for and receiving a college degree due to a lack of monetary funds. Without a social security number, many are unable to find a quality job to pay for college, let alone acquire one post-grad.

How does the DREAM-A-THON work?!

The event is a walk-a-thon, with a twist. This walk is not based on the amount of laps committed by the walker or the distance they walk, it is simply based on the presence of each individual at the event and their dedication/support to help AB540 students receive a quality education.

All registered participants will receive pledge forms to distribute to family/friends for flat-rate donations in support of the walker and this cause. For every $10 donated, an additional ticket for opportunity drawings will be provided for the participant.

So, when, where, and how much is it?!
