Thank you for helping Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU) welcome Afghan refugees to our city, our community and our university.
Your contributions to the Afghan Transition Program will ensure that Northeastern Illinois University is able to quickly meet the financial needs of students who have resettled in Chicago and chosen to study at NEIU. This fund will provide financial support for necessities such as groceries, clothing, childcare, transportation, books, school supplies, technology and more.
The Visiting Afghan Scholar Matching Challenge will support an at-risk Afghan academic who has recently relocated to the Chicago area by providing a teaching and/or research opportunity at NEIU for the 2022-2023 academic year. A generous donor will match funds contributions to this account up to $25,000.
Your employer may match your donation, doubling or even tripling your gift to support students. To see if your employer will match, enter your information into the match section of our giving form.
If you would like to send a check, please make it out to the NEIU Foundation and indicate the fund or funds you would like to support.
