Established in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the\u00a0<\/span>Sargent Cares Fund<\/a> provides flexible, current-use student support above and beyond traditional financial aid.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the spring of 2020, we have distributed tens of thousands of dollars in aid to help students continue their momentum toward their Sargent degree and career. <\/span>Grants from the Sargent Cares Fund have been used to help students recover from unexpected losses of employment (both their own and their families\u2019), lend technology support, and, above all, to help keep students enrolled at Boston University<\/p>\n

Your gift makes a difference at a critical juncture in the lives of our students.\u00a0 <\/span><\/h3>\n

Our students\u2019 success is imperative \u2013 they are the health professionals who will lead us to a healthier, more equitable future \u2013 even as current challenges have presented new obstacles to their success. Together, we can ensure that financial setbacks will not derail them. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you for considering a gift to the Sargent Cares Fund, an essential lifeline for students during unprecedented times.
