About

We estimate that 1 in 3 John Jay students are essential workers during the fight against COVID-19.

We celebrate their bravery and service as NYPD, FDNY, EMTs, healthcare professionals, essential workers and others keeping us safe.

The Front-Line Heroes Fund provides these students with no-cost summer sessions and financial support for hardships so they can stay on track and graduate.

For as little as $300, you can help fill the gap over what financial aid pays and provide no-cost summer sessions to student heroes.

Thanks to the generosity of the Aronson Family Foundation, every $1 donated will be matched by $1 up to the first $25,000—doubling the impact of your gift.

Support our John Jay Front-Line Heroes Today.

If you're a front-line or essential worker, please connect with us and share your story.

Thank You!

Together, we raised over $60,000 for our Front-Line Heroes Fund, exceeding our goal of $50,000! Because of your support, our frontline and essential student heroes will stay on track to graduation by taking a no-cost summer/winter course or receiving financial support to those who need it.

Thank you to our entire John Jay Community including the Board of Trustees, senior leadership, faculty, staff, alumni, friends, parents and students for making the campaign a success!

A special thank you to our student heroes: Estefania Solis '20, Mateo D. Sáenz '21, Luc Vaval '21, Khalil Barakat '23, Rosa Jimenez '20, Richard Salorio '23 and countless others for sharing their stories.
