随着威尼斯人娱乐城社区开始感受到COVID-19的影响，个人捐款给学生应急基金为有需要的学生带来了巨大的影响。
从发起众筹项目的同学到工作人员和社区捐助者，威尼斯人娱乐城的支持者向威尼斯人娱乐城学生紧急基金捐款7万多美元，不仅帮助学生留在学校，还帮助学生支付住房、食品、水电费和其他紧急需求。
“We recognize that the effects of COVID-19 are not only physical, but economic. We are grateful to those who were able to step up and lend a hand.”
“Based on the demand, we were relieved to be able to provide critical assistance to our students in need,” said 威尼斯人娱乐城 Provost Jenny Lundgren. “We recognize that the effects of COVID-19 are not only physical, but economic. We are grateful to those who were able to step up and lend a hand.”
维克多正在学习电气和计算机工程。 他相信拥有大学学位将为他建立成功的职业生涯提供坚实的基础。 紧急援助使他能够顺利完成学年，并建立一个更光明的未来。
“With this act of kindness, I am one step closer in achieving my educational and career goals,” he said. “I plan to always give back to the community as a professional and successful engineer.”
一些学生面临的挑战不仅仅是学业上的。 丹尼斯一边攻读研究生学位，一边独自抚养孩子。
“I had fallen behind on everything,” she said. “I am ever grateful for the blessing that you have bestowed on me.”
“我们感谢那些在各个层面支持该基金的捐助者。”
虽然目前的危机最终会过去，但对应急资金的需求将永远存在。 威尼斯人娱乐城基金会主席Lisa Baronio相信社区将继续支持学生走向毕业。
“We always make the distinction that our donors are supporting people who are working to improve their lives and our communities as a whole,” Baronio says. “But these emergency funds are critical to keeping students in school, and we will always have students for whom relatively small amounts can make the difference between graduating and not being able to continue their education due to small financial constraints. We are grateful for those donors who support this fund at every level.”
