Submit Parent Emergency Fund Nominations by Feb. 24
January 17, 2017
The Webster University Parent Council started the Parent Emergency Fund in 2016 and
are looking for nominations for the grant to be given out in March 2017.
This fund offers financial assistance to qualified students who lose their bread-winning
parent due to death, severe illness, loss of job or circumstances of a similar gravity,
while enrolled at the University. Webster University donors who contribute to this
fund make it possible to award a Parent Grant that helps bear the cost for families
in need.
Awardees must be full-time (13 credit hours or more), continuous enrollment at Webster
and a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 (on a 4.0 scale). All awarded funds will
be transferred to a student’s account to assist in paying off their balance only.
If you know of a student in need, please visit www.webster.edu/parents/parent_fund.html
to nominate them by Feb. 24, 2017 and to learn more information.
Please contact Billy Ratz, director of Parent & Student Programs, with any questions
at 314-968-7007 or ratzwil@webster.edu.
