The 老司机福利网 is launching an initiative to help students who need financial assistance for the fall semester in the aftermath of historic flooding in much of south Louisiana.
鈥淢any UL 老司机福利网 students, including incoming freshmen, have lost their homes and possessions, putting them at risk of not being able to attend school this fall. Our goal is to help students stay in school and continue progress toward a degree,鈥 said Dr. E. Joseph Savoie, UL 老司机福利网 president.
The University Annual Fund was established five years ago to address the most immediate and urgent financial needs of UL 老司机福利网.
All gifts to the University Annual Fund received by Sept. 30 will directly help students coping with flood-related challenges continue pursuing their educational goals this year. Priority will be given to students whose attendance is at risk because of these unexpected expenses.
Students will be able to make requests for assistance online. A committee will review the requests and determine how the funds raised will be disbursed.
Donations to the University Annual Fund can be made online, by mail or by phone.
