Kedge does not want to leave its students by the side of the road in this period of health crisis. The large business school located mainly in Bordeaux and Marseille announced this Thursday morning that it was exceptionally unlocking 100,000 of its emergency fund exclusively for its students faced with significant financial difficulties related to the epidemic of coronavirus Covid-19.
This fund, normally endowed with 20,000 euros per year, was almost entirely used up this year. The Kedge Foundation decided to give 50,000 euros at first and the school did the same. For Céline Claverie, Secretary General of the establishment, “it seemed inconceivable that we should not act to help our most underprivileged students in the face of this unprecedented health and economic crisis. "
5,000 students take distance courses
Kedge will study the individual situations of each student due to the crisis: breach of internship agreement, breach of student employment contracts, housing issues, financial difficulties encountered by financiers, difficulties related to expatriation abroad ... And some may therefore benefit from financial aid.
