About this project:
The Student Career Advancement Fund empowers University of Delaware students to pursue transformative professional opportunities regardless of financial circumstance. By providing funding for unpaid or underpaid internships and professional conferences, this initiative removes barriers that can prevent students from fully engaging in career-building experiences.
Your support helps students gain meaningful hands-on experience, build professional connections and develop the skills and confidence that lead to lifelong success. Grant awards typically range from $4,000 for summer internships and $1,500 for winter internships, to $500 for conference or networking participation.
Help us provide these pathways for students to explore their potential and shape their futures!
How your support makes a difference!
Your gift has the power to transform a student’s future. By easing financial barriers such as lost wages, travel costs and living expenses, your support opens doors for students to pursue life-changing internships and professional experiences that might otherwise be out of reach. With your help, students can focus on gaining hands-on experience, building meaningful professional connections and discovering the career paths that inspire them. Every contribution directly fuels their growth, helping them develop critical skills, expand their networks and enter the world after graduation with confidence, experience and a clearer sense of purpose.
