The Necessity Fund
Help students arrive with everything they need to settle in and start strong.
Help a student feel at home from day one. Move-in day should be exciting. For some students, though, it comes with a quiet worry: how to afford the things that turn an empty dorm room into a place to live, from bedding and bath supplies to a working laptop. Trinity created the Necessity Fund in fall 2018 so those students can arrive with the basics already covered. Eligible students opt in, and their kit is waiting in their room on move-in day.
