Student Emergency Fund

The Student Emergency Support Fund was established by Laurentian University shortly after the COVID-19 emergency was declared on Tuesday, March 10th, 2020.

The goal of the fund is to provide financial assistance to students with:
 

• Food purchases and other costs for financially disadvantaged students;
   
• Addressing housing challenges for students who are self-isolating to protect their loved ones in remote, rural and Indigenous communities, or who are stranded far from home and loved ones due to border closures;
   
• Securing an internet connection at home, for those who may have just been using the internet on campus previously;
   
• Income loss due to a business closure or lay-off;
   
• Other financial hardships that may have presented themselves due to the COVID-19 measures implemented by Laurentian University, and all levels of government.
