Mason’s fourth annual Giving Day, Thursday, April 2, is normally an opportunity for every Patriot and friend to support their favorite cause or program at Mason.
With the extraordinary circumstances of the last few weeks, the effort has been completely reimagined and is now focused on a new purpose: providing urgent assistance to students in need, under the banner of Patriots Helping Patriots.
For that purpose, University Life has established a Student Emergency Assistance Fund aimed at getting much-needed assistance in the hands of Mason students now. The College of Health and Human Services, the Schar School of Policy and Government, and the School for Conflict Analysis and Resolution are among those partnering with University Life on the effort to help students experiencing financial distress.
