Emergency Scholar Assistance Program

NSCS NSCS is organizing this fundraiser to benefit The National Society of Collegiate Scholars.

Tax deductible

Hundreds of thousands of college students nationwide have had their semester/term severely disrupted by the current COVID-19 pandemic.

The result: unplanned academic, financial and housing hardships. This includes...

*Campuses are closing and most in a haphazard, confusing way with limited notice.
*Students are often given less than 72-hours to move off campus, arrange travel and find new housing.
*Many don’t have a safe place to go and don’t know where their next meal will come from.
*Work study and part-time jobs have been disrupted.
*Study abroad and internship programs have been cut short or cancelled.
*Classes, labs, practicums and research studies have been put on hold.
*Students are incurring unplanned expenses for travel, housing and last-minute relocation.

On 3/16 NSCS launched the Emergency Scholar Assistance Program to offer a limited number of immediate, onetime $125 stipends to help offset such hardships for NSCS members.

The response was both heartbreaking and overwhelming. More than 6,300 students applied to a quantitative-based application that measured the level of need.

Sadly, NSCS cannot support even a fraction of these students.

Might you consider making a onetime tax deductible so that we can continue to help fellow members? No donation is too small and each will released in $125 increments within 5-7 business days.
