Gifts to Hanszen College contribute to...
This year, we are thrilled to grow the Hanszen College Accessibility Fund and expand its impact. This fund ensures that every Hanszenite—no matter their financial background—has the opportunity to participate fully, feel supported, and thrive during their time at Rice.
Over the past year, the Accessibility Fund made a difference for 80 students. We helped cover essential needs like travel home, laptops, textbooks, medical prescriptions, graduation regalia, and clothing. For students living off campus, the fund assisted with rent, storage facilities, and critical car repairs. Beyond essentials, we made it possible for students to engage in campus life—including Hanszen merch, club performances, and intramural sports.
At its heart, this fund is about showing up for our community and reinforcing the culture of care that defines Hanszen. With your generosity, we can continue removing financial barriers so our students can focus on learning, leading, and shaping a better future.
