<div class="" style="font-family:Helvetica; font-size:12px"><font face="Verdana" class="" style="font-size:14px">On behalf of the Division 45 Executive Committee, I am excited to announce the continuation of the <span class=""><font color="#0433ff" class="" style="font-weight:bold">Division
45 HOPE Fund</font></span> for 2021 for undergraduates, graduates, interns and now expanded to early career professionals (i.e., individuals within 10 years of graduation). <span class="" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">The Executive Committee of
Division 45 developed the HOPE Fund initially to provide financial support to Division 45 student members experiencing hardships related to the COVID-19 pandemic. To date, we have been able to provide approximately $14,500 to 32 students in the Division for
critical items such as rent, food, tuition, gas, insurance, medicine, textbooks, utilities, research supplies, etc. Without question, this has truly been one of the most meaningful projects that the Division has created! </span></font></div>

<div class="" style="font-family:Helvetica; font-size:12px"><font face="Verdana" class=""><span class="" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255); font-size:14px">Given the continuing nature of this health and fiscal crisis and recognizing that early career
professionals (ECP) are also experiencing their own challenges, the Executive Committee was unanimous in its decision to continue and expand the HOPE Fund for 2021. Of all the segments of our Division 45 community, the leadership of the Division recognizes
that students and early career professionals are facing some of the hardest financial challenges due to the pandemic - particularly our undocumented and/or international students who are ineligible for federal support.</span></font></div>

<div class="" style="font-family:Helvetica; font-size:12px"><font face="Verdana" class=""><span class="" style="background-color:rgb(255,255,255); font-size:14px">Although our resources are limited, the Executive Committee is strongly committed to using the
resources we do have towards advancing our student and ECP community. Therefore, it is our collective hope that these funds – which do not require repayment – can provide some measure of financial relief and serve as a tangible act of support for our student
and early career members.</span></font></div>
