Giving Tuesday: December 3rd, 2024
Your Gift will benefit Student Emergency Aid
In times of need, the COM Foundation has a Student Emergency Aid (SEA) fund for students enduring financial hardships. We understand how difficult it can be for students to continue their education while under financial duress. A fundamental role of the COM Foundation is providing students in need with the ability to achieve their higher education dreams.
Car repairs, medical emergencies, temporary housing or childcare needs, and other life events can easily derail a student’s educational journey. COM Foundation’s SEA Fund provides emergency financial support for students to help with basic family needs, allowing them to stay on track and relieving stress caused by unexpected financial burdens. Emergency aid is provided on a case-by-case basis and vetted through a consistent application and review process. Students may request funds and receive aid as often as once per academic year.
If you have any questions or would like more information please contact the Foundation at 409-933-8508.
