The NHAA Student Emergency Fund
We are pleased to announce the launch of the NHAA, Inc. Student Emergency Fund. The Fund is designed to support current, hardworking students encountering financial difficulties. The Fund will provide individual grants of financial support, allowing students to focus on achieving academic goals.
The NHAA, Inc. Student Emergency Fund will be fueled solely by donations from alumni and corporate partners. Every dollar donated will awarded to a student in need.
Award recipients will be selected by a committee and receive final approval through a majority vote of the Executive Board. Award recipients will be chosen based on financial need, and must be in good academic and social standing with the University.
Hamptonians, let’s continue to let our lives do the singing by ensuring that students for years to come are able to come back to homecoming as graduates!
