Blood Partnership
Hearts & Hands
The Hearts and Hands fund is the working name of the WVU Emergency Relief Fund. The fund was started back in 1995 to provide some financial assistance of up to $300 to faculty, staff, or students in need. Requests for assistance (financial, fire, disasters etc.) go to the WVU Staff Council Executive Committee for the initial review and recommendation to take to the Council for a final vote. If time is of the essence and a decision needs to be reached quickly due to circumstances, the Executive committee will make the decision.
Staff Tuition Assistance Program
The Tuition Assistance Program, designed in 1986, allows over 200 classified staff to take classes free of charge at WVU and other institutions of higher learning.
