This Giving Tuesday, the IMRP would like to highlight one of its initiatives that provides a direct benefit to students at the University of Connecticut – Hartford Campus.

The CT Children with Incarcerated Parents (CIP) initiative has provided more than $15k of scholarship funds to students impacted by the incarceration of a close family member.

The scholarship awards up to $1,500 per academic semester to chosen applicants in any field of study and are renewable for a maximum of six semesters in total.

Donations are accepted through the UConn Giving website and all donations go directly to deserving students and help them focus on their education and college engagement by alleviating the financial burden of the cost of attendance.

Hear from previous recipients and learn more about the program on the CIP website.
