Ichabods Moving Forward

For Students. By Students.

A financial emergency can happen to anyone at any time. These circumstances may prevent one of our classmates and friends from attending classes, or if severe, continuing to seek their degree. This has been especially evident as the COVID-19 pandemic has placed burdens on many students financially and amplified the need for proper technology to continue their education remotely.

Ichabods Moving Forward is a student-led philanthropic organization sponsored by the Washburn University Alumni Association and Foundation. We provide an opportunity for students to help fellow Ichabods through difficult times by supporting an emergency assistance fund for students and by students.

Together, we can make a difference! By donating to the Ichabods Moving Forward emergency fund, you will help a classmate in need. One-hundred percent of your donation goes into the emergency fund.
