Student Emergency Housing


At Sacramento State, we believe in transforming lives through compassionate support. Our emergency housing program does more than provide a roof—it provides hope and opportunity for students facing unexpected challenges.

Our students are resilient, dedicated, and driven. When life throws unexpected obstacles in their path, they don't give up—they persevere. Take the story of one of our students who shared: "I would like to thank you for what you have done. Since you afforded me the ability to live in a place off the streets, I am now an honor student, which is amazing to me!"

This emergency housing program is a lifeline for students who find themselves suddenly without a home. We provide short-term housing assistance and help students find permanent housing solutions. For some students, we can even provide a meal plan, offering two nutritious meals a day in our dining commons. This support means a student can focus on their studies instead of worrying about where they'll sleep or how they'll eat.

Your generosity can change a student's entire trajectory. By supporting this program, you're not just providing a place to stay—you're giving students the chance to continue their education, pursue their dreams, and become leaders in our community. You're helping students like our honor student prove that with the right support, anything is possible.

Give today and be part of sustaining student success. Your gift can transform a moment of uncertainty into a pathway of achievement. Together, we can ensure that no Sacramento State student loses their educational opportunity due to housing insecurity.

Thank you for investing in our students and in the future of our community.
