Do you want to make a difference, together with your fellow alumni, for the current generation of Wageningen students, at a time when it really matters? Then make a reunion donation to the Louise O. Fresco Emergency Fund.
Imagine this: you’re about to graduate after years of hard work. Then, unexpectedly, something changes in your life or in the world, putting your financial situation under pressure. For some Wageningen students, this is the reality. Without help, they just can’t quite finish their studies.
With your contribution to the Louise O. Fresco Emergency Fund, you provide support at this crucial moment. The fund offers immediate, temporary assistance to students and young researchers who face financial hardship due to circumstances beyond their control and have no other options.
This way, you help ensure that talent is not lost. That a student can graduate. That research can continue.
Together, as a cohort, you can make the difference between having to give up or being able to move forward.
