Support Our Work​
On top of our work to protect graduate workers at Wayne State, GEOC also has programs that seek to financially support graduate workers in need. Please consider contributing to our programs that aim to help graduate workers during their most difficult times.
Survivors of Sexual Violence Fund
This fund gives up to five $500 grants to graduate workers who are survivors of sexual violence. Beginning in 2021 GEOC is giving 5 grants each semester to GTAs or GSAs who apply for the grant. We hope to be able to expand the fund in the future to allow for more recipients to receive support. If you would like to contribute to this fund, please click here"
