S.H.A.R.E. (Student Help and Relief
Effort)
S.H.A.R.E.
Application
In 2001, the Office of Student Affairs
initiated a student fund called SHARE--Student Help
and Relief Effort. The SHARE fund is intended to provide
financial assistance to students for unanticipated expenses
(e.g. prescriptions, medical care) and expenses that
are beyond student's means for whatever reason (e.g.,
clothing, toiletries). In some cases, this help can
make the difference for a student having to make a choice
to stay at AC or leaving the College. In other cases,
the help may allow a student to focus on academic success
rather than a specific barrier to that success.
Applications can be completed by any
concerned party--faculty or staff--on behalf of the
student and submitted to the SHARE committee. The referring
staff member is asked to continue as advocate in the
process so as not to require the student to share his
or her story again to the committee. The faculty or
staff member may be contacted by a SHARE committee member
for additional information or clarification. The application
or referral may be made to any of the committee members
listed below. All information submitted will remain
confidential and limited to committee members.
All requests for funding will be considered
as different students have different needs. However,
the fund is limited and in some cases, such as requests
for textbooks, the faculty or staff member is strongly
encouraged to explore other possibilities with the student
(library reserve, desk copies, Academic Services textbook
library) before making a request on behalf of the student.
Donations to the SHARE fund are encouraged.
Donations are tax-deductible and should be made to Adrian
College specifying the SHARE fund as a restriction.

fund, please contact any of the following Student Affairs
