RE:  Invest in Student Success Today: #CUNY Tuesday Campaign

Warm greetings! We write with inspiring news. Today begins the #CUNYTuesday Campaign, a month-long fundraising endeavor dedicated to fueling student success through our Student Emergency Fund.

The Student Emergency Fund is a transformational resource that provides critical food supplies, tuition support, housing stability, transportation, and much more. Your generous gift to the Student Emergency Fund creates access to semester-long meal plans, rental and utility assistance, winter and spring courses, and MetroCards—making class attendance and city-wide internships more attainable.   

Equally important, 100% of your investment will ensure our student scholars remain undeterred on their path to graduation and pursuit of rewarding careers. With your invaluable partnership and donation to the Student Emergency Fund, we are powered to uphold our community's shared commitment to student success.

Thank you for being fierce advocates for justice and supporting our unwavering endeavors to further cement academic achievement for all students.
