Organized by the KU Leuven Alumni Chapter USA, your gift helps students study, research, and make a lasting impact.

🎁 It’s Giving Tuesday!

Today, the KU Leuven Alumni Chapter USA is supporting the [KU Leuven International Scholarship Fund](https://giving.kuleuven.be/funds/ku-leuven-international-scholarship-fund), which helps talented students from around the world pursue a master’s degree at KU Leuven.

Why give? Because your support truly changes lives.

If you have questions, feel free to contact the chapter, or [Nathalie De Spiegeleire](mail:nathalie.despiegeleire@kuleuven.com), advisor to the fund.

Let’s make our first Giving Tuesday a meaningful one. 💙

This fund invites US-based KU Leuven alumni and friends to support scholarships for talented international master’s students. 

The [KU Leuven International Scholarship Fund](https://giving.kuleuven.be/funds/ku-leuven-international-scholarship-fund) gives young talent from all corners of the world the opportunity to pursue a [master's degree](https://www.kuleuven.be/scholarships/year/2025-2026/eligible-programmes-2025-2026) at [KU Leuven](https://www.kuleuven.be/english/kuleuven/), offering them a springboard to a bright future. 

At the top of this page, you can see the 2025 inaugural scholarship recipients: Maria (BR), Constanza (CL), Thao Le (VN), and Eslam (EG) - a vivid reminder of the talent that support to the fund unlocks and the life-changing opportunities it creates.

For donations to fuel the fund, we look explicitly to **US-based KU Leuven alumni and friends.** As an alumnus or alumna, you have the opportunity to actively contribute and make a substantial difference in the lives of the next generation of KU Leuven students. You can help extend them a ticket to the excellent education and unique opportunities offered by KU Leuven. 

The Fund awards scholarships every year. How many? That depends on your support. You can contribute to a partial scholarship, fund one in full, or even support several. 

With your gift, you may choose one of the four scholarships:

- [Inspiring the Outstanding Scholarship](https://www.kuleuven.be/scholarships/year/2025-2026/inspiring-the-outstanding-scholarship), for students from around the world
- [KU Leuven Scholarship for Africa](https://www.kuleuven.be/scholarships/year/2025-2026/ku-leuven-scholarship-for-africa), for students from Africa
- [KU Leuven ASEAN Scholarships](https://www.kuleuven.be/scholarships/year/2025-2026/ku-leuven-asean-scholarship), for students from Southeast Asia
- [KU Leuven Scholarship for Central and South America](https://www.kuleuven.be/scholarships/year/2025-2026/ku-leuven-scholarship-for-central-and-south-america), for students from Central and South America 

To direct your gift to **a specific scholarship,** click Donate, then check “*Add a note for Friends of KU Leuven International Scholarship Fund*” and write the name of the scholarship in the Private Note section. If you prefer to **support the fund as a whole**, simply leave the note blank. 

**Every contribution makes a real difference!** 

If you have any questions or want to learn more about the impact of your gift, please feel free to contact our Advisor to the Fund, [Nathalie De Spiegeleire](mailto:nathalie.despiegeleire@kuleuven.be).
