How We Make Change

Every year, Believe in Students supports thousands of #RealCollege students, enabling them to learn and succeed. Our outcomes contribute to the evidence that emergency aid is an effective student success strategy. Our work training students and faculty allows them to create systemic change on their campuses and beyond. Witness how your support transforms lives and helps communities prosper. By improving student well-being, we create a ripple effect that benefits our communities as a whole.

Uplifting and Empowering Student Voices

To effectively address students’ basic needs, it’s essential to listen to and believe in them.

Amplifying student voices entails more than simply providing a platform for them to speak. It necessitates actively heeding their ideas, worries, and feedback and integrating it into our decision-making processes. It entails acknowledging their distinctive experiences and identities and guaranteeing that they are included and represented in all aspects of our work.

At Believe in Students, we are committed to uplifting student voices in every aspect of our work. From our programming and curriculum to our policies and decision-making processes, we prioritize and value student input and feedback. We acknowledge that everyone has a role to play in creating a more inclusive and equitable society, and we believe that amplifying student voices is a crucial first step.

Join us in honoring and uplifting student voices by discovering the inspiring success stories of the students we support. Together, we can make a difference and empower students to thrive.

Reports and Evaluation 

We are focused on addressing basic needs insecurity by identifying innovation and driving impact. We believe in sharing what we learn from this work with others, so effective innovation can spread, and even innovations that fail can teach us something about how best to support students. Where we learn things that work, we want to add to the evidence base in the field by documenting our work. We partner with some of the leading researchers in the country to ensure our work gets a high level of scrutiny and that the results we document can be trusted.
