Babson faculty and staff will lace up their sneakers and run/walk a 10k to raise funds for the Melissa Shaak Student Emergency Fund on Wednesday, May 27 at 3:00pm from the Globe. This is the 7th annual run!
The fund supports unexpected expense of students including:
• Medical, dental or mental health emergency expenses that are not covered by insurance.
• Replacement costs of essential personal belongings in the event of fire, theft or natural disaster that are not covered by insurance.
• Travel in the case of the death or illness of an immediate family member.
• Temporary support costs for a student in a dangerous situation due to threats or acts of violence.
• Individually-recommended or required services that are considered critical to a student’s success, for example, diagnostic testing for Accessibility Resources.
• Support for emergency dependent-related expenses, for example, child care.
If you want to participate in the run, sign up online!
