    OUTREACH CHAIR

    Why did you found hearts?

    Coming into college, I remember the intimidation I felt reaching out to people for new opportunities. It wasn't until I found my own circle of support that I slowly began to overcome this fear. With UCR Hearts, I hope to provide this same support to students who feel as I once did.
