Students share how Cabrini funding has impacted them:
“Because of the Cabrini fund, I gained a unique clinical experience in the Santa Clara Medical Valley Center. Not only did I solidify my medical career choice, but I also gained physician mentorship. I am incredibly grateful for such experiences and resources since I am a first-generation student in the premedical field.”

"I am grateful for the support the Cabrini Fund provides so that my DACA renewal would be possible. DACA renewals, especially including attorney costs, are expensive, and the Cabrini Fund helps make renewals more affordable."
