Your gift will make a difference

So far, we have over $100,000 in the fund from more than 250 generous donors and our matching donors. We have awarded 342 of our students totaling $80,000. Today, we have over 800 students who are in need and have submitted applications that we are continuing to review.

We want you to know that your gift will make a difference. This fund is helping students who are single mothers, international students, students who have lost their job and students who have had to find a new place to live. Check out our updates tab to read words from some of these students.

Thanks to matching donors your donation will be doubled up to $50,000! Help us raise $50,000 so we can help more students experiencing hardship during COVID-19.

The COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund offers limited emergency financial assistance to currently enrolled students who are unable to meet immediate, essential expenses because of temporary hardship related to COVID-19. The fund is designated to offset short-term financial need and is not intended to replace or supplement financial aid.
