CSUN giving day, March 5 & 6 2025

CSUN Giving Day is March 5 & 6, 2025.

Join forces with others to make your gifts to CSUN HHD!

2025 has started off with many unexpected challenges in our communities. We know that with so many urgent issues calling for funding, it isn’t easy making philanthropic decisions.  

We'd like you to think about the power of programs that are consistent over time, and the stability that comes from reliability.  The Matador spirit in HHD means we are always watching out for the wellbeing of our students and our communities over the long run.

Your support gives the College of Health and Human Development greater strength to make transformational investments in critical areas, enhancing, enriching, and empowering all we serve.

Learn more about how your financial contribution can make an impact on the students and programs within HHD.  We thank you for your caring engagement with us!

Air Quality Monitor

Local Air Quality

Air quality can vary across communities, but this monitor shows you how it is at CSUN right now.  Learn more about air quality from epa.gov and utilize your weather app.

The fires have affected all of us to some degree, and as we help others, we gain strength together.  We in HHD share dedication to the healing that is to come as we aid recovery and keep individuals, families, and communities moving forward.
