Donate Today to Help SBN Students
December 21, 2020

Hi All,

With all of the current difficulties for students with this COVID crisis, the SBN leadership is concerned that some of our students, or prospective students, may find it difficult to pay SBN membership dues. Thus, I am pleased to report that our Immediate-Past President Rae Silver has agreed to provide 10 of her own self-knitted hats to be provided to anyone making a $100.00 donation to a fund to support student memberships ($100.00 supports membership for 2 students!)

The DEI Committee has agreed to review student requests for support with hopes that these donations will help support URM students and others of need. Right now, we have 10 hats available, first come first served (although I suspect if the demand is high we can twist Rae’s arm to make a few more). As you can see from the picture below, the hats are beautiful and warm.

If you are interested please send an e-mail to Barney Schlinger (schlinge@lifesci.ucla.edu) and I will put you on the list.

All the best to everyone for a Happy, Healthy and Safe Holiday and Wonderful New Year.  And a special thanks to Rae Silver!!

Barney
SBN President
