Emergency Assistance
When Crisis Hits, Help Students Keep Going
Emergency assistance helps our students cover urgent needs like rent, food, car repairs,
and medical care. These small grants are the lifelines they need to keep pushing forward.

Help Us Meet Our Goal of $200,000
Why $200,000? Because last year our two colleges awarded $112,956 in emergency assistance,
yet dozens of requests went unfunded simply because the money wasn’t there.
Every gift matters. Costs are rising and students need us more than ever.
The students featured below received those funds. Their stories are proof that a small helping hand can prevent a temporary setback from becoming a permanent interruption to their education.
Students We Helped Because of Donors Like You
Each of these students faced a different challenge. Our Emergency Assistance Fund is flexible enough to respond in the ways students need us most.
When Eliza needed to get out of an abusive living situation, an Emergency Assistance grant helped her do it.
When Noel needed to fix the leaky roof on the shed he lives in, an Emergency Assistance Grant got him the supplies he needed to weather the storm.
When Firza's family of five didn't have enough money to cover rent, a gift from the Emergency Assistance Fund kept them housed.
