This award supports the Seawolf Scholars Critical Needs Fund in direct response to the adverse financial impacts COVID-19 has caused for economically vulnerable populations. It provides emergency funds to foster youth students for needs such as food, shelter, and health care, as these are often the largest barriers to foster youth completing a four-year college degree. In doing so, it helps eliminate external stress and burdens so students can focus on thriving in their education.
