Causes - students
Covid-19 has dramatically altered our students’ university experience, significantly changing the Salford they know, and the professional world they will join as graduates. At the University of Salford we are committed to supporting talented students to succeed in Higher Education. With the help of alumni and supporters, we provide bursaries and funds to help students who may otherwise be deterred from study, to reach their full potential. We need to do all we can to support our students, and we need your help.
We are acutely aware that this pandemic has affected everyone, and that many of our supporters are unable to give at present. However, if you are in the position to do so, you can support our students by making a donation to Student Hardship, and we can put your generosity to work straight away.
Student hardship
We would never want a short-term financial challenge to prevent a student from completing their course, and the Student Hardship Fund can be the difference between a student pursuing their academic and professional dreams or having to put their studies on hold.
Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, supporters, and friends, the Student Hardship Fund can offer a financial lifeline to those experiencing exceptional financial difficulties through no fault of their own through non-repayable awards. The Fund is intended to help students experiencing hardship due to ongoing financial difficulties, including essential living costs, or unexpected financial emergencies.
Revive grants
To help address the rising demand for financial and emotional support amongst students as we continue to navigate the Covid-19 pandemic, we recently launched the Revive Grants. The Grants will address areas such as mental health, wellbeing, and employability, providing our students with valuable opportunities and the skills to thrive and not just survive.
Now, more than ever, we need your support to help our students remain in education and realise their dreams.
