Help A Clemson Student!
The Pursuit's mission is simple — help Clemson students in need. We invite you to come along in our goal of raising $75,000. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps us create a lasting impact.
Oftentimes financial aid only covers the cost of tuition and books, leaving all living expenses up to the student. Even if a student works throughout the year and in the summer, it is a stretch to continue to excel at school, be an involved student leader, while making ends meet. The scholarships awarded on an application and need basis, will give students the freedom to thrive rather than worry about their next meal.
Donate to the Students Helping Students fund today!
100% of your donation will go to student scholarships and directly impact a Clemson Student.
