Student Opportunity Fund: DU’s Safety Net & Springboard

On Giving Tuesday, your gift meets a DU student right where they are. Maybe it’s covering groceries after an unexpected bill. Maybe it’s a week of bridge housing so classes don’t slip away. Maybe it’s the exam fee, the textbook, the conference travel, or the leadership program that turns potential into a path.

Your support does three powerful things right now:

• Your gift helps students with food security, short-term housing or utility gaps, transportation, and other urgent costs that can derail a quarter.

• Your gift opens doors to opportunity to buy textbooks and materials, certification/exam fees, conferences, research needs, leadership development, and other 4D-aligned experiences that build résumés, confidence, and networks.

• Your gift strengthens well-being and belonging by providing resources that keep students connected, healthy, and fully engaged in the DU community.

Make it tangible today:

• $5 can help with campus transit or essential supplies.

• $50 can fuel a micro-grant to keep momentum strong.

• $100 can cover a certification or conference fee that advances a career.

• $500 can bridge a short-term housing or utilities gap so a student stays enrolled.

Thank you for believing in our students. Every dollar is used thoughtfully to remove barriers now and accelerate the 4D Experience for a student's success.
