The Northeastern community turned its attention to racial discrimination in healthcare this spring, when 11 student, faculty, and alumni groups joined forces to create Black Health Matters. With the help of Northeastern’s Student Philanthropy team, the groups launched a Black Health Matters contact-a-thon in June, a 24-hour fundraising push that resulted in meaningful philanthropy to support the following four organizations:

• Action for Boston Community Development Health Services
• Black Women’s Health Imperative
• The Center for Prisoner Health and Human Rights
• The Audre Lorde Project

WE CARE STUDENT EMERGENCY FUND

This spring, as the campus shut down in the interest of public health, many students found themselves facing unexpected challenges. They needed assistance with transportation, short-term accommodations, storage costs, and the loss of income from campus and other jobs. 

With the help of donors to the We Care Student Emergency Fund, Northeastern was able to meet these needs, ensuring that our students were never alone while struggling to navigate a challenging and uncertain time.
