The Hardship Fund helps students go school. That's it. Please consider the impact your gift could have, and help us fill the funds this .

This , help support The School of Business centers and programs that are creating a connection between PSU students and our community. Contributions provide support for students with unmet need so they can stay on track to degree completion despite unexpected financial challenges.

"The Hardship Fund allowed me to focus on what matters the most - school. Money was tight for me and as a DACA student especially, it is more difficult to raise money for school. Access to the hardship fund allowed me to focus my energy on learning and going in the right direction."

- Luis Patron-Diaz, Undergraduate Hardship Fund Recipient, BS in Finance, '19
