Student Emergency Assistance Fund (SEAF)

Student Emergency Assistance Fund (SEAF)

At DePaul University, the Student Emergency Assistance Fund (SEAF) has provided critical support to students facing unexpected financial hardships for nearly 20 years. Whether it’s covering the cost of rent, groceries, medical bills, or replacing a lost Ventra card, SEAF ensures that students can stay focused on their education, not on how they’ll make it through the week.

As the academic year draws to a close, the need for emergency support is greater than ever. Your gift to SEAF directly supports students navigating crises threatening their ability to stay enrolled. These are students who are doing everything right, but face circumstances beyond their control.

Your generosity helps keep students housed, fed, healthy, and on track to earn their degrees. With your support, SEAF continues to be more than a fund—it’s a reminder to students that they’re not alone, and that their dreams are worth fighting for.
