The area served is culturally diverse; more than 50% of residents are immigrants and over 70% of households speak languages other than English at home. CommUniverCity SJSU works with faculty, students, and community partners to create and sustain meaningful course-based service-learning opportunities, at the same time encouraging civic engagement of students while increasing community connections among residents.\n\nCommUniverCity SJSU projects are based on priorities set by neighborhood residents and creates, supports, and enriches sustainable community-engaged learning projects in the following areas:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Education : Cultivating a college-going culture<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Community Health : Contributing to healthy and environmentally sustainable lifestyles<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Neighborhood Environment : Creating a physically safe and socially empowered community.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\nIn short, CommUniverCity sparks and accelerates community engagement with the people power and expertise of SJSU students and faculty. We have done this across downtown neighborhoods for the past 16 years because we believe everyone deserves to live in vibrant and healthy communities.\n\nIn 2021, CommUniverCity learned that a pre-endowment fund had been opened by Dr. Stephen Kwan, a Professor Emeritus, creator of the SJSU Management of Information Systems courses, and former CommUniverCity Steering Committee Member. In order to reach full endowment status, CommUniverCity must raise $12,500 to be matched by Dr. Kwan. Dr. Kwan sees CommUniverCity as a steward of service learning. His vision for creating this fund is to provide long term, sustaining support for CommUniverCity.\n\nBelow is a sample of what was used in a newsletter. Because our organization has a hyperlocal service area, our network is also small in terms of running crowdfunding campaigns, etc. The goal for your team is after the sample text below.\n\nThanks to the generosity of Professor Stephen Kwan and his wife Amy, the CommUniverCity Founders Fund was recently established.\n\nStephen Kwan, now Professor Emeritus, is the former Associate Dean of the Graduate School of Business. Before his retirement, Stephen Kwan was active in helping craft project development and continues to be a strong supporter of CommUniverCity\u00b4s work. If you would like to help grow this fund where Dr. Kwan will match every dollar up to $25,000, visit this link and stay tuned for upcoming announcements\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Service Learning CommUniverCity SJSU is a partnership between Community (&#8220;Commu201d), SJSU (&#8220;Univer&#8221;), and the City of San Jos\u00e9 (&#8220;City&#8221;) to improve community connections, health, and education in low-income neighborhoods in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":217679849,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"no-sidebar","site-content-layout":"page-builder","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"disabled","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"disabled","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"class_list":["post-26683","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/PdKLrT-6Wn","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/26683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/217679849"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26683"}],"version-history":[{"count":22,"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/26683\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29735,"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/26683\/revisions\/29735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cucsj.org\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
