The CSUMB Basic Needs Initivate will be the recipients of the CCAA Cares funds from the upcoming CCAA Women's Golf Championships, presented by Under Armour. The Cal State Monterey Bay Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) chose the program as its charity of choice.

The CCAA provides 10 percent of the net ticket revenue to the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) program at each CCAA institution hosting a conference tournament or championship for them to donate to their preferred non-profit. Institutions hosting a conference championship that does not charge admission (i.e., cross country, golf) will receive a $250 contribution.

Cal State Monterey Bay is the co-host of the 2025 CCAA Men's & Women's Golf Championships, April 21-23, at Sandpiper Golf Club in Santa Barbara. The CSUMB Basic Needs program will receive $125 from the CCAA as part of the CCAA Cares program.  Click here for more information about CSUMB Basic Needs

Since the program's inception in 2022, CCAA Cares has provided more than $7,600 over the past two seasons. The CCAA Cares initative aims to amplify the exceptional community service contributions made by CCAA athletic departments and their respective SAAC and student-athletes. Click here for more information on CCAA Cares
