Women of Westwood

champions made here

Women of Westwood aims to honor the comprehensive excellence from UCLA female student-athletes and coaches since the creation of Title IX in 1972, as well as inspire philanthropy to enhance the educational and athletic-related resources UCLA provides to help shape the next generation of female leaders.

UCLA remains committed to empowering female student-athletes and coaches both past and present. The Women of Westwood fundraising initiative will allow for alumni, fans and friends of UCLA Athletics to share in that commitment and help build a sustainable future for the women's athletics programs at UCLA.

your gift impacts: academic support, first class recruiting, comprehensive nutrition, and elite student-athlete experience

In 1972, they passed Title IX, and in 1975 l had no idea where I was going to school, but UCLA came to me and offered the very first women's athletic scholarship... And so l played basketball, volleyball, ran track here, and that was the best decision I ever made. ANN MEYERS DRYSDALE WOMEN'S BASKETBALL LEGEND WOMEN OF WESTWOOD

As someone who has worked with hundreds of incredible women over my 37 year career at UCLA, I couldn't be more proud to support Women of Westwood. This celebration is a chance to commemorate the wonderful successes of our women's athletics programs, while the fundraising initiative is an opportunity to build upon those successes from the last 50 years. Join me as we pioneer the way for female student-athletes to represent UCLA as difference-makers in our community for years to come. VALORIE KONDOS FIELD FORMER GYMNASTICS HEAD COACH WOMEN OF WESTWOOD

As the overall cost of providing an ELITE student-athlete experience continues to rise, support from our Bruin Family is more crucial than ever. We hope you’ll be one of 75 donors to give to the Women of Westwood Endowment today!

Women of Westwood is the gift that continues to give to support female student-athletes to reach their full potential both on and off the field of play. JACKIE JOYNER-KERSEE TRACK & FIELD ALUMNI WOMEN OF WESTWOOD

The trajectory of my life was forever changed the day I became a Bruin - and that's exactly what the Women of Westwood Fund does for young female athletes - it changes lives. JEN SCROEDER SOFTBALL WOMEN OF WESTWOOD

Gifts are managed and invested in accordance with UCLA’s endowment investment policies. The total return earned in excess of the amount approved annually for payout will be retained in the endowment principal to protect from the effects of inflation and to allow for growth. At the discretion of the appropriate campus office, when the payout is not needed for purposes of the fund, the return of payout may be added to the endowment fund principal. In the event the fund does not reach endowment minimum; or the program ceases to exist at UCLA, proceeds from the fund will be utilized in an area and manner as closely related as possible to the original intent and purposes for which the fund was established. 

Although the Endowment is intended to exist in perpetuity, unforeseen circumstances may alter or remove the subject area from the campus academic plan or it may become impossible, impracticable or wasteful to administer. In such an event, the Chancellor is authorized to re-designate the purpose of the Endowment, after taking into consideration the designated endowment purpose.
