About the Fund

The Edna Bailey Sussman Fund is a trust fund set up by the late Margaret L. Sussman of New York City. This fund was established to make awards for environmental internships to students focusing their studies in environmental subjects. SNRE students are eligible to apply for Sussman internship funding if they are in good academic standing, will be interning in the US, and will continue their education in the fall. Funding amounts are typically $5,800 per student.
