180 Degree Consulting UCSB

180 Degrees Consulting at UCSB is a student-led consulting organization dedicated to providing pro bono consulting services to local businesses and nonprofits. Our mission is twofold: to deliver impactful solutions to our clients and to offer our members hands-on consulting experience while still in college. As a nonprofit, we rely entirely on donations to sustain our operations, as we do not charge our clients for our services.

Why We Need Your Support

Running a consulting club involves essential costs, which we strive to offset through fundraising. Our expenses fall into two primary categories:

Consulting Resources: To provide the best possible service to our clients, we need tools like premium Slack and Notion for team collaboration, Canva Pro for creating polished client materials, and other resources to enhance project delivery.

Professional Development: We’re committed to preparing our members for successful careers after graduation. This includes access to interview preparation materials, like RocketBlocks, as well as hosting networking and bonding events to strengthen team unity and collaboration. These events often involve costs for food, tables, and other supplies.

Without donations, many of these expenses would fall on our members or simply be unavailable. Every contribution, no matter the amount, is a direct investment in the professional growth of our members and our mission to serve local businesses with innovative solutions.

We are deeply grateful for your support in helping us continue to make a positive impact on our community and prepare the next generation of consulting leaders.
