Our Story

CampusKiwi is a small college startup founded by a small group of students at Santa Clara University with the intent of building around the college niche community, centered-around student informational needs, local businesses, and student networking. Rather than competing with existing social networking platforms such as Facebook or MySpace, CampusKiwi aims at creating local communities with direct communication with students and local businesses.

Students at Santa Clara University are also known (as well as in Jesuit tradition) to have a strong emphasis in sustainability and giving back to the community. As mentioned in our mission statement, CampusKiwi will give back a small percentage of the revenue earned at each campus from local businesses back to students in the form of a scholarship grant. Additionally, we aim to create a strong relationship and support the small local businesses that thrive around campus who have also historically represented the backbone of our nation's economy.

Mission Statement

Our mission at CampusKiwi is pretty simple. In short, we want to create a great product, increase inter-student opportunities for collaboration, and have a fun time while doing it! Who said work couldn't be fun?

CampusKiwi seeks to:

1. Create value for students by providing a website for students by students.
2. Empower students but partnering with students at local campuses and working with student-frequented local businesses and collaborating events with students.
3. Give back to students by donating a small percentage of the revenue earned at each campus back to students at each campus in the form of scholarships.
