Tuesday, Dec. 1 is #GivingTuesday, and we are dedicating it to our students. For 24 hours, we’ll be accepting donations to the Rams Relief Fund.

In March, during the beginning phase of the COVID-19 pandemic, it was apparent this unprecedented situation would create significant challenges and unforeseen financial hardships for some of our students and their families. Unexpected expenses and loss of income would take a toll on resources already stretched thin.

Our faculty, staff, alumni and friends were concerned and asked how they could help, so the University established the Rams Relief Fund. This fund is how the RAMily and University can help ensure students are able to continue pursuing their dream of earning a college degree. The Rams Relief Fund helps students who may have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic by providing additional financial aid to pay for expenses like tuition, fees, room and board and other costs associated with their education.

Join us in showing our students support and encouragement this #GivingTuesday!
