Help us Launch the KUMC Student Emergency Fund

KUMC students work incredibly hard to balance their academics with competing priorities—family, friends, and often jobs. For many, an emergency can make the difference in their the ability to continue their education. The KUMC Student Emergency Fund will be used for students experiencing an unexpected or unforeseen expense due to circumstances beyond their control. Emergency funds are intended to assist a student in addressing an immediate, unexpected financial hardship which might otherwise prevent them from continued participation as a KUMC student.

Help our students THRIVE!

The THRIVE Food Pantry is a free resource available to all students and exists to supplement students’ current food circumstances. Providing non-perishable food items will help students meet their basic dietary needs and will ensure they never have to choose between things like books or food. Last year THRIVE served over 400 individual students and their families with 19% of users reporting feeding 3 or more people including children and elders. This is only possible through the continued support from our campus community.
