HOW YOU CAN HELP
Support the Student Emergency Fund
East-West Center Student Emergency Fund
Help our students during this unprecedented time of need. Many of them are facing unforeseen personal hardships due to COVID-19. Some have lost wages and may have trouble affording basic needs. Others may lack the resources to travel back home or manage medical expenses. Your gift to the Student Emergency Fund will help us give special assistance at times when needed.

Student Emergency Fund and How You Can Help
Other Ways You Can Help Support Students Now
The needs of the students are constantly evolving as they adapt to their current living situation, and the Education Program is in regular communication with them. There are however, a few areas that remain vital towards the health and wellbeing of the students. First, the East-West Center Participant Association (EWCPA) has created a foodbank to help address food security needs. Because students are finding it more difficult to access markets, items such as fresh produce and perishables, as well as non-perishables are increasingly important during this time. Any food donations are welcome.
Thanks to the generosity of so many of you, the Lucien match challenge has been reached! Mahalo to all who donated!
Due to the lingering uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, the student still need your support. Please consider making a donation today.
Mahalo for all that you do to support the East-West Center and its students.
