We are living in exceptional times. The corona crisis is having a major impact on all of us, particularly on the most vulnerable groups in society. The measures taken by the government to prevent further spreading of the corona virus have also affected students at the University of Amsterdam.

Crowdfunding for UvA students in financial distress

Students may find themselves in difficult circumstances during this crisis. For example, students who have had to suspend their research or internship abroad, students who are unable to return to The Netherlands or to their home country, and students who are losing vital income due to the loss of their part-time job. For some of them, these are frightening and uncertain times.

The UvA and the Amsterdam University Fund want to ensure that these students have something to fall back on and are therefore committed to those who are at risk of ending up in serious financial trouble as a result of this crisis.

Support UvA students

By means of a crowdfunding campaign, we want to support these students. The Amsterdam University Fund is backing this initiative with grants from available funds. 

Only together we can really make a difference. Let’s help those in need to regain their sense of security and make sure they are able to continue their studies.
