The UIC United Faculty FAST Fund is a union-administered fund to help UIC undergraduates cover costs necessary for them to complete their education. A joint project between our parent union, the American Federation of Teachers, and the non-profit Believe in Students, the FAST Fund allows faculty unions to quickly give out small grants to help students cover costs like childcare, rent, car repair, medical expenses, licensure fees, or anything else that will help support their education.
If you have any questions at all, please contact UICUF Organizer Priya Varanasi (uicufpriya@gmail.com).
