Seeking Youth Volunteers

Written by

The Subud CA Congress team seeks young people (age 14-20) to staff and manage the coffee & tea service during the 2024 Congress at UC Santa Barbara. Volunteers are needed for shifts from Friday afternoon, August 2 to close of Congress on Monday, August 5.

The team will brew coffee, ensure that snacks, paper cups, tea bags, and creamers are available, and collect payment. Those who participate will be helping to raise money for a youth fund for future congresses.

Bring the Kids to our Regional Congress

Written by

We want families to bring their children to the California Congress! In support of this, the registration fee is waived for attendees 17 and younger.

In addition, the Region has established a special fund to partially offset the cost for families with children staying onsite at UC Santa Barbara. Subud CA families can receive $180 to help cover room and board at Congress. In some cases, especially for families with 2 or more kids, this amount can be increased.

How to Request Family Funding:  BEFORE YOU REGISTER, send your request by email to elnakc@gmail.com, with the number and ages of the children plus desired nights of stay. If your request is funded, you’ll receive a discount code to use when completing your registration. Funding is first-come, first-served, so do act quickly!

The Congress runs August 2-5, 2024. Find pricing and options for onsite stays HERE and details about the Congress venue on the event website HERE.

With love to all, your Congress team
