“Dear student emergency grant fund, words can’t express just how truly grateful I am, you have made a difference in my life and the lives of my children, thank you for helping me when I needed it the most.”
The Student Emergency Fund assists students who experience a financial emergency or unanticipated expenses causing short-term financial hardship that requires immediate attention to keep a student in college. This program is designed to assist those who cannot reasonably resolve their financial difficulty through scholarships, loans or other Financial Aid awards. Thus far, 100% of the students receiving support have remained enrolled!
Donations of any size make an impact:
$25 equivalent to transportation to get to school for one student
$50 equivalent to gas and groceries for one student
$100 equivalent to medical bills and utilities assistance
$250 equivalent to car repair, medical bills, or book purchasing assistance
