The York Sanctuary Fund

Project Image

The York Sanctuary Fund responds to the huge challenges faced by students, academics and Human Rights Defenders from around the world. Your support means that we can offer sanctuary when it is needed, without the pressure or limits of emergency support.

You can choose to support the York Sanctuary Fund which means that your support will go where the need is greatest.

Your support is helping us build a sustainable, realistic package of support for people seeking sanctuary. A fund which takes into consideration the multiple challenges people face, the unpredictable nature of global issues impacting them and the increasing number of applicants wishing to unlock this support.

In addition to offering Scholarship and Fellowship funding, the York Sanctuary Fund provides support for incidental costs and expenses, which are vital to individuals who are fleeing conflict, war, or persecution. We recognise that no one person is the same and that this must be reflected in the support we offer.

But we need you, our alumni, supporters and friends, to make that happen.
