Gifts to Student Emergency Fund contribute to...
Together, We Respond in Moments That Matter Most.
On Rollins Giving Day, supporting the Student Emergency Fund means helping students navigate unexpected crises that threaten their ability to continue their education. This fund provides immediate financial assistance to students facing serious emergencies beyond their control.
Emergency support is reserved for critical situations such as natural disasters, severe illness, or the death of a close family member. In moments like these, timely assistance can make the difference between a student staying enrolled or being forced to step away during an already overwhelming time.
Since 2020, 522 Rollins students have received $209,116 in emergency funding - an average of $400 per student. Often, that small amount is the difference between staying enrolled and stepping away during crisis.
This year, Giving Day brings the Rollins community together to strengthen this vital safety net. When 50 donors give to the Student Emergency Fund, Michael ’85 and Babita ’10MHR Hilton will donate $20,000 to the fund, expanding the College’s ability to respond quickly and compassionately when students need help most.
Every gift strengthens a safety net for students facing extraordinary circumstances. Join us on February 19 and help ensure that when crisis strikes, Rollins students are not facing it alone.
Good morning, Rollins! We had a record-breaking day yesterday, raising the most dollars for our programs of any single Giving Day. We saw engagement from alumni, parents, faculty and staff, students, and friends, and all our challenges were unlocked. We are incredibly humbled and thankful for all the support. 💛💙
