Transforming Lives, One Student at a Time

February 20, 2025

Hear from some OSU Marion students: these students were Emergency Fund recipients who were able to overcome a financial obstacle to help their academic success. Your donations make stories like theirs possible. 

Here are a few thank you-notes shared by the fellow students. 

  • Thank you for reaching back out to me. That is wonderful news that lifted me up when I read it. I cannot thank you and the rest of the committee enough for helping me during this time. I hope you and the committee have a great weekend. Thank you again. 
  • I would like to thank you and the rest of the committee very much for accepting my application for this emergency grant - I can't even begin to tell you how much this will help me out at the moment. I also appreciate how quickly you guys were able to get back to me regarding the application!

Students, did you know?

February 07, 2025

Hello fellow students!

We are so excited to announce that we are officially one week into the campaign. So far, we have raised $925 and couldn’t be more thankful for all the support we’ve received from many donors.  

Benefits of Donating  

As a class, we have put together this campaign to build the Emergency Fund which helps our fellow students with unforeseen expensesIf you are not familiar with what this means, helping a student can be donating a simple $5 that could easily change their life. Some examples of expenses that OSUM has covered in the past include 

1. Medical Bills 

2. Child Care 

3. Emergency Car Repairs  

4. Rent/ Utilities 

All of these expenses can impact a student’s life tremendously, and with the help from the donations OSUM is able to make a change. 

If you or a student you know is experiencing a financial crisis situation and need some help, you can apply online here:
