JAM helps & supports students from Ukraine

In the face of the war in Ukraine and its consequences for the population, JAM MUSIC LAB Private University would like to draw attention to the following support options for affected students in Vienna and in the war zone.

The following is a list of assistance and donation options, as well as support organizations and offers of psychological support.

Assistance and donation options

Every day we receive calls for help from Ukraine. In view of the war and its massive impact on our students and those seeking help from the war zone, JAM MUSIC LAB GmbH has set up a donation account. The proceeds will be used to support the students and, if possible, to finance new study places in order to enable young people from Ukraine to receive an education in Austria. JAM MUSIC LAB GmbH gets involved by financing half of each new study place for displaced persons from its own funds. 



For the other half, the young people depend on your help: Become a sponsor and help with your contribution to make study places and thus future perspectives possible for young Ukrainians!
