BUVJA is the only club at BU solely dedicated to advancing student visual journalism. We aim to support the career and portfolio development of dedicated student press photographers and videographers at BU through workshops, speaker events, and sharing resources. We are also associated with the BU student chapter of the National Press Photographers Association.
As a brand new club that started Fall 2024, we are seeking your support to become an established organization at BU!
Your donations would help us achieve these goals:
$50 - BUVJA merchandise such as microfibre cloths for students
$100 - 5 students would be able to get year-long student memberships to the National Press Photographers Association
$200 - Cover photography contest and film festival entree fees for students, making submitting to professional contests and getting recognition more accessible
$500 - A BUVJA photo exhibition gallery and printed zines to share student work with the community
$1000 - We would be able to fund student attendance at professional photojournalism conferences (eg. the NPPA Northern Short Course) and be able to drive to cover news events outside the Boston area)
