What does BBSA do?BBSA is a student-run organization that emphasizes community service and women's leadership. There are five different aspects of BBSA: philanthropy, women's leadership, fundraising, campus spirit, and social. We annually serve over 10,000 hours of service to Los Angeles organizations and UCLA. Bruin Belles participate in a wide range of community service projects with organizations such as the LA Times' Festival of Books, Meals on Wheels, the Amanda Foundation, Project Angel Food, and the Los Angeles Veterns' Hospital. In addition, we support UCLA's athletic, performing arts, and alumni programs. The organization also sponsors its own events including speaker functions for members and P.L.A.Y. Day. We strive to continuously lend a hand to those in need and at the same time create a fun and warm environment for fellow UCLA students to not only become actively involved with the community but also meet many other Belles as well. Does BBSA organize events on the UCLA campus?
At the moment we primarily help with other organizations but during spring we have our annual P.L.A.Y Day in which we gather UCLA athletes and young students together for a have of fun and games.
This year, we are excited to produce an Open Mic night benefiting a women's shelter in Haiti. What do the social aspects of BBSA include?We put on many socials throughout the month from simple movie nights to adventures in LA. We have quarterly parties and Spring Formal at the end of the year. What will BBSA add to my life?BBSA will allow you to explore a different aspect of Los Angeles and help get you out of the dorms! You will meet many great UCLA girls who are just as passionate and dedicated to philanthropy and leadership (and fun) as you are. It is an excellent resumé builder and leadership experience. |
