Established by students, run by students, benefiting students. That’s how the organization named in honor of this university’s year of founding works.
    Donations—including an option to give exactly $18.31—fund scholarships for incoming freshmen and transfer students, regardless of country of origin and/or documentation status, with all the money raised going directly to financial aid.
    A former member of the 1831 Fund committee, alumnus Quemuel “Q” Arroyo (CAS ’12, WAG ’20), pictured here, is now the New York City Department of Transportation’s first-ever chief accessibility officer. He’s celebrating the 1831 Fund’s 10-year anniversary with a gift because, as he says, “I give back because I got so much during my time on campus.” To make a donation, visit giving.nyu.edu/1831-fund.
