An emergency relief fund for displaced students who enroll at UWM is now ready to accept donations. As of Monday, September 12, UWM has admitted 22 students whose educational plans were disrupted by Hurricane Katrina. The UWM Emergency Relief Fund will provide some financial support for things like textbooks, clothing, and other personal items that will help students adjust to their new circumstances. This is a general student emergency fund, so any funds that don't get used this year will go toward helping future students who are experiencing life crises.
Contributions can be made online at http://emergencyfund.uwm.edu or by sending a check to the UWM Foundation, 3230 E. Kenwood Blvd, Milwaukee, WI 53211. Donors should indicate on their check that the contribution is for the UWM Emergency Relief Fund.
