Support the Jay Berman Daily Titan Scholarship!

Cal State Fullerton created a donation link with 100% of the proceeds going to the Jay Berman Daily Titan Scholarship. (Ask your tax adviser whether you qualify for the tax deduction.)

Many thanks to the CSUF College of Communications for picking up the memorial service expenses, which allows all of your donations to go directly to students.

Give to the Jay Berman Daily Titan Scholarship Here.

Donations will support scholarships for Daily Titan editors, many of whom are first-generation, under-represented or low-income university students.
