#OttersGive 2026

#OttersGive is a 24-hour online fundraising event to bring the entire Cal State Monterey Bay family together

We are celebrating the collective power of our Otter community to uplift and empower our students. It's an opportunity for alumni, parents, faculty, staff and friends to come together and demonstrate The Strength of Us. This is more than a fundraising event, it’s a moment to demonstrate the incredible impact we can make together.

Gifts of all sizes add up to have a big impact for students, faculty and our entire university community.

Let’s show what’s possible when Otters give!
