SELF – Student Emergency Loan Fund
Camiolo Student Emergency Loan Fund (SELF)
The Student Emergency Loan Fund (SELF) was established in 2014 by John ™86 and the late Caryn H. ™85 Camiolo, who believed helping others, especially students, when in a moment of need was an essential act of empathy and kindness. A single financial crisis can have lasting effects on student success and even degree completion. This fund answers a student™s call, “if only I had a little help to…” The SELF provides short-term loans to students for situations both temporary and beyond their control. The SELF was established with the expectation that students who use the fund seek to œpay it forward� as soon as they are able by contributing to the fund so other students can be helped, too. While there is not a legal obligation, the donors hope that student loan recipients respect and honor the value o f community and helping others in their time of crisis.
