About the Fund
The Beverley’s Fund for Accessibility provides financial support to students enrolled in a Renison University College program—Social Development Studies (SDS), Social Development Studies/Social Work Double Degree, Bachelor of Social Work (BSW), or Master of Social Work (MSW)—who require accessibility-related products and cannot obtain them through other means. The fund may be used to purchase assistive computer devices, software, or other approved accessibility products that support a student’s documented functional limitations.
This fund is not open to students taking minors or individual Renison courses.
