The Orion Fund Annual Grant Program Awards

The Orion Fund is pleased to announce $70,155 in grants to 47 students across 10 campuses throughout California. These students are navigating serious health challenges—from mental health struggles and cancer to car accidents and sports injuries. We are here for them, providing support during times of significant financial stress and uncertainty.

This year, we saw a notable increase in mental health-related grant requests, reflecting the growing anxiety and pressure students are experiencing. Our mission remains steadfast: to help students stay in college and continue their education despite the obstacles they face.

Sometimes, the most meaningful impact we can make is simply to let students know they are not alone—that we see them, we hear them, and we care.
