ITU UIF Silicon Valley Fundraising

We are four students from Istanbul Technical University that have attended Stanford University Design School's (d.schoool) program called "University Innovation Fellows Program", which aims to empower students to become leaders of change in higher education and maintain a global movement to be the changemakers in their own university. We were chosen as Istanbul Technical University's "University Innovation Fellows" after completing an intensive 6-week program on design thinking and innovation. As such, we have been invited to Silicon Valley, San Francisco, on March 24–27, 2023, for a global meetup with fellows from 70 other universities. Unfortunately, as students, we are unable to cover these expenses on our own. We are reaching out to you in the hopes that you will be able to help us achieve our goal of attending this life-changing program.

Your donation will go towards covering the costs of tuition, accommodation, and travel expenses for the program. By supporting us, you will be investing in the future leaders of innovation and entrepreneurship at Istanbul Technical University.

We are extremely grateful for any support you can offer, no matter how big or small. Your generosity will not only help us achieve our goal of attending the Silicon Valley Meet-up to represent our university, but it will also make a positive impact on the entrepreneurship and innovation ecosystem of Istanbul Technical University.

Thank you for your consideration and support.

Sincerely,

Başak Bozkır
