3500+ attendees at major events. 600+ active members. 1500+ hours volunteered. That's us. That's WeDesi - Your Home Away From Home. In just our first year at UIC, we've become the largest South Asian student organization on campus, creating a thriving community where students find belonging from day one. We don't just host events - we create experiences that remind every student that home isn't a place you left behind, it's a community you build together. Witness our impact here: Instagram

But we're more than just our spectacular events. We're your support system from day one. New students, we've got your back – from airport pickups and temporary accommodation to navigating campus life. We're the community that makes UIC feel like home every single day.

As a self-sustaining organization, our executive board works tirelessly organizing fundraisers to keep our large-scale events completely free for all students. To continue expanding our impact and serving our ever-growing community, we need your support. Your contribution, big or small, directly fuels our free cultural celebrations and essential student services, allowing us to share our heritage with every student at UIC.

Join us in continuing this incredible journey. Please donate today and help us expand the community that's already created exceptional experiences for thousands of students – because every student deserves to feel at home.
