Learn more about your impact
Food and housing insecurity. Unanticipated medical expenses. Family emergencies. Fires. Broken-down cars. Rising rent. Theft. Sudden financial stress makes everything else harder.
The investment our students make in themselves is significant, and any unexpected expense can impede their success as a student. In the event of any emergency or financial stress, Thunderbird recognizes that a fundamental way it can support its students is by providing financial relief grants.
Your gift provides critical financial assistance to Thunderbird students when they don’t have anywhere else to turn to in times of crisis. Your investment and support can provide need-based resources that will position them to succeed in graduate life. By supporting this grant, you provide critical assistance to students who face unforeseen circumstances, such as accidents, illness, death of a family member, or need for temporary housing.
Your generosity provides emergency financial support to a future-ready leader facing an unforeseen hardship. A donation from you will help them remain on track to persevere and succeed.
