The College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) at St. Edward’s University is entering a period of transition following the federal government’s decision to eliminate funding for migrant student programs nationwide.

CAMP Alumni,

After 54 years, the U.S. Department of Education has discontinued federal funding for the College Assistance Migrant Program (CAMP) at St. Edward’s University.

As CAMP alumni, we know the truth: CAMP changes lives. It dismantles cultural, socioeconomic, and academic barriers, creating pathways that otherwise would not exist. For students from migrant farm-working families, the challenges are profound — and without the kind of holistic, comprehensive support CAMP provides, many doors to higher education will close.

This is where you come in.

Federal support is gone, but the need for CAMP has never been greater. Today’s students stand where we once stood — hoping for the same chance to thrive, lead, and lift their families out of poverty. Your gift directly provides the advising, mentorship, and resources that make that transformation possible.
CAMP’s future now depends on alumni and friends who know firsthand what this program means. Will you step forward to ensure the next generation of CAMP scholars has the same opportunity we were given?

¡La lucha sigue hoy más que nunca! Thank you for showing today’s students that the CAMP community stands with them. Today is the last day of the Live Blue Give Gold campaign so make your gift today.

An online petition demanding the release of FY25 funds to HEP/CAMP programs has been created. Please sign the petition in support of CAMP and the release of funds- https://chng.it/mPGcLBkVQS
