Unexpected and difficult situations can happen to anyone at any time. Through the generous support of donors, Hendricks Chapel can assist student veterans and military-connected students experiencing financial hardship.
Mini-grants are available to meet a wide range of needs and to provide access to opportunities. Grants generally range from $300 to $500 and can be requested once per academic year. Categories of support include food, clothing, emergency travel, emergency health care and other non-academic expenses.
Our goal is to ensure access to academic enrichment opportunities for all students that would otherwise be unavailable to them. Hendricks Chapel works with partners across campus to ensure students with needs receive prompt and effective assistance. To inquire about these grants, contact Assistant Dean of Student Assistance Alison Murray at acmurray@syr.edu.
