Many students often need a little support to get beyond an obstacle in their path. Women Philanthropists for KU has created the KU Women 4 KU Women Fund to assist students to fulfill their educational and career goals. This fund provides one-time assistance for currently enrolled full-time KU senior or graduate women students on the Medical Center campus. Money awarded can be used for needs such as conference registrations, exam fees, application costs, textbooks, and more.
