UW–Madison’s Emergency Student Support is a critical resource to help students through times of financial crisis. This fund is designed to alleviate the types of financial emergencies that often derail students from continuing in school, for example:

  • Food insecurity
  • Emergency travel home
  • Sudden loss of income
  • Unexpected bills

Your gift to the Emergency Student Support Fund provides needed relief to students who are financially vulnerable and helps them navigate these challenging situations.
