UACCM Day of Giving: Jamie Palm
On March 10, Timberwolves everywhere will unite for one day of giving – a day long giving event that will support UACCM students and programs.
Today, we highlight UACCM student Jamie Palm, who has combined her determination and perseverance with the on-campus aid that UACCM provides to pave the way to a better future.
"I notice the Timberwolf pantries everywhere I go. Students don't have to wait, they can grab what they need if they need it," said Jamie.
She continued, "There's been many times that I have gone and grabbed a snack to get through the day. It comes in clutch when my funds are low or I am running in between classes each day."
Another on-campus aid that UACCM offers is the Student Emergency Fund. The Student Emergency Fund exists to help any UACCM student meet a temporary or unexpected financial need to stay in school.
"I learned about the Student Emergency Fund right before the big ice storm last month," Jamie said.
She continued, "I needed a way to pay for a CPR class. The Student Emergency Fund only took a few minutes to fill out and it made a big difference."
Jamie also has experience with the Career Pathways program on campus — "I really loved hearing about the work Career Pathways was doing to support students in their program, and I've been utilizing their services ever since."
"For me, now being in the nursing program, Career Pathways assists me with gas cards that help pay for gas as I drive to clinicals," Jamie said.
"Being a full-time student, while doing part-time work study, still doesn't make ends meet. I am so grateful for the assistance from Career Pathways."
