2020 Social Work Student Emergency Fund

The 2020 Social Work Student Emergency Fund for BASW, MSW, and PhD students who have been affected by COVID-19.  The fund provides one-time funding to cover a range of needs, from assistance with living expenses to help with educational costs.

To apply for funding, students in good academic standing can simply reply to this Catalyst survey.  PLEASE NOTE THAT APPLICATIONS ARE DUE BY MIDNIGHT, APRIL 9TH and awards will be announced by April 15th.

If you have any questions about the fund, please contact Vicki Anderson-Ellis, Assistant Dean of Finance & Administration at vaellis@uw.edu.

The 2020 Social Work Student Emergency Fund has been made possible by the generosity of donors and friends—and the dedication, quick thinking and ingenuity of SSW staff from the Dean’s Office,  Office of Admissions, Office of Student Services, Office of Advancement, and the BASW, MSW, and PhD program. I want to thank the following heroes who came together to conceptualize, plan and launch the fund in record time:

  • Vicki Anderson-Ellis, Assistant Dean for Finance & Administration, Dean’s Office
  • Saul Clifasefi – Office of the Dean
  • Nicole Guenther – BASW program
  • Jennifer Maglalang – Office of Admissions
  • Lin Murdock – Office of Student Services
  • Hoang Ngo – PhD program
  • Lidia Sanchez – Office of Admissions
  • Julie Sun – Office of Advancement
  • Aliyah Vinikoor – MSW program
