The Basic Needs Center Discretionary Fund provides students with essential resources and support when they need it most.
Every student deserves an opportunity to succeed. Many students face barriers to basic necessities, affecting their focus and well-being. Your support is vital for providing resources that enhance health, belonging, and persistence. The Basic Needs Center and the Student Emergency Fund are essential campus resources, offering equitable basic needs services and advocating for systemic change to remove access barriers. The center ensures students receive adequate nutrition and stable housing, having supported over 350 students with housing since 2022 and saved them over $2.6 million in grocery costs.
The requests for housing and food assistance have risen. Your contributions directly fund the center, provide emergency support, and ensure access for current and future CU Boulder students.
