How you can help
As a community there are some specific ways you can help our students and each other through this trying time.
Donate to the COVID-19 Student Emergency Fund
The student emergency fund provides one-time funding for UW Bothell students who have been affected by COVID-19. Requests for funding have increased sharply in recent weeks. Donate to the emergency fund.
Put a Student Employee to Work
Some of the students who usually work on campus cannot do their usual jobs. If UW Bothell staff or faculty have a task that lends itself to remote work, contact Janel Nonhoff.
Donate Blood
Bloodworks Northwest is scheduling blood donations by appointment. Call 800-398-7888 or go to bloodworksnw.org
Northshore Senior Center
The center is seeking donations to support its ongoing operations, which includes meals on wheels and transportation to medical appointments. Donate now
