A big thank you goes out to everyone who made the success of our graduate students a priority. Together we raised enough money to ensure the success of some of our graduate students!
Thank you again and Rock Chalk!
Today is your chance to give back. A little bit can help a lot. Share this page and spread the word, Jayhawks help Jayhawks.
We are thankful for all the support the Jayhawk community has shown for our graduate students. During the holiday remember those who need a little help to have a happy holiday. You can continue to help by posting about the campaign on social media or by emailing the www.launchku.org/emergencyfund link to your friends and family to spread the word about this great cause!
We all know that KU Students take pride in their use of crosswalks but just imagine walking home from your lab and being struck by a car. In this unexpected emergency, you could end up in the hospital. Other Jayhawks are here to help and the Graduate Student Emergency Fund is here to help.
The story of this graduate student could easily have happened right here in Lawrence.
We can't let one step off the curb be a step back in the academic future of our graduate students.
Together we have made a great start, now let's keep it up and spread the word!
David Scott needed an emergency kidney transplant but The Graduate Student Emergency Fund could have been there to help!
We are proud to kick off the campaign to support our graduate students. Let's spread the word and let's show our students what it means to be a Jayhawk!
