Our Crowdfunding Groups
Thank you for your interest in the Student Hardship Fund Momentum campaign. Even though this campaign has ended, you can still support the Student Hardship Fund by making a gift today!
Dear Donors,
Thank you so much for your support of the Student Hardship Fund. With your generosity, we were able to surpass our $5,000 goal on our Momentum page in the Spring of 2021. We cannot stress enough how grateful we are for your donation, as the Student Hardship Fund is 100% funded by donors such as yourself.
This year, we are hoping to once again surpass our goal of now $10,000 to support students enduring unexpected financial hardships. In the Fall 2021 semester alone, we have already distributed over $15,000 in aid to undergraduate and graduate students across both the Atlanta and Oxford campuses. That is why we are asking our donors to give now and kickoff Emory’s Giving Tuesday campaign, which you can access through this link.
It is through your generosity that the fund has survived for soon to be over a decade, and we hope that you will once again help Emory students continue to pursue their education despite unforeseen circumstances.
We greatly appreciate your continued support. From all of us, thank you!
Sincerely,
The Student Hardship Fund Committee
Dear Donors,
Thank you so much for supporting the Student Hardship Fund! Thanks to your donation, we were able to meet and surpass our goal of $5,000 on our Momentum page, which is enough to fund approximately 16 students who have incurred catastrophic circumstances.
Additionally, we would like to thank those of you who supported this meaningful cause during Emory Day of Giving last week! With your support, we were able to raise an additional $8,791 in support, which will allow us to further our impact!
We cannot stress enough how thankful we are for your donation to the Student Hardship Fund. Our fund is finite, which means that your donation not only allows us to help more students this year but also ensures the longevity of such a necessary fund. As the pandemic continues to be a factor in students ' lives, we are continuing to see an increase in applications to our fund. During this year alone, we have awarded over $35,000, and donations like yours are what make that possible.
We greatly appreciate your continued support. From all of us, thank you!
Sincerely,
The Student Hardship Fund Committee
