Saumya Jain / 2024 Team Fundraising

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! 

WHY I RIDE:
We share hope, knowledge and charity through leadership development, grantmaking, and our cornerstone event, a 4,000+ mile bike ride from Austin to Anchorage. I will be riding for my maternal grandparents who both suffered from cancer and with the hope that we can spread to others in the same boat!

Through Texas 4000, I will not only get to ride in honor of my family, but also volunteer and share knowledge with new people I meet. I have always been an avid member of my community, helping out in any way I can and volunteering for all kinds of things. The mission means so much to me and I am proud to raise money for a cause where I know the funds are going to something real and tangible, something that will hopefully make it so that nobody has to feel the pain my mom felt ever again. If your life has been impacted by cancer, I would be honored to hear your story and dedicate my ride to you or a loved one. Please reach out to me at saumyajain@utexas.edu and share!

To Alaska and Back,

About Saumya Jain

Thank you so much for visiting my page, I hope you get a glimpse into who I am! My name is Saumya Jain and I am a fourth-year Electrical and Computer Engineering student at The University of Texas at Austin. I was born and raised in Austin, TX (Hook ‘em!) and am an aspiring Software Engineer. Service and leadership are two pillars of my existence and I am heavily involved in many organizations on campus. I am a director of the Society of First Year Engineers where I cultivate a community and provide mentorship to first year students entering university and am also a director of the Student Engineering Council’s Technical Development team, serving over 19 student organizations. Aside from school, I've been a dancer my whole life and used to be on a competitive Bollywood Fusion team here at UT (UT Saaya). I love rock climbing, hanging out with friends, eating, traveling (I’m coming off a semester abroad in Madrid!), and enjoying Austin for all it has to offer.
