Student Care Fund

Last December, we asked our Susquehanna community to support the university’s Student Care Fund, which helps our students experiencing unexpected financial need and ensures that the full Susquehanna experience is afforded to them. So many alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends answered the call. And in our recent One SU Day of giving you answered the call again and helped us grow the Student Care Fund to the largest it has ever been. Thank you.

COVID-19 is affecting all of us, but we’re doing everything in our power to ensure that our students are able to finish their academic semester, can retain a semblance of normalcy, and, most importantly, are being fed, protected, and cared for.

As we’ve experienced many transitions over the last few weeks, the Student Care Fund has:

• Helped students acquire the materials and technology needed to transition to online learning
• Provided grocery gift cards to students who experience food insecurity at home
• Assisted with gas cards for students who could not afford last minute travel
• Stocked a campus food pantry for students who remain on campus to use outside of campus dining hours

The generosity of our Susquehanna community made all of the above possible. Gifts made to the Student Care Fund have proved invaluable during this difficult time, and, for that, we are so grateful. Our community has made sure that all Susquehanna students are being cared for.
