Giving at South Carolina

The Tradition Join your fellow seniors in making a meaningful impact with your philanthropic gifts. As a Senior Class Legacy donor, your gift starts a lifelong commitment to support USC and its future students. From the day USC students set foot on campus, annual gifts quietly work to enrich the college experience by funding scholarships, recruiting beloved professors, providing for student group initiatives, enhancing classrooms, and strengthening every aspect of student life. As a senior, you can pay it forward by making a gift to the area of your choice.

The Project Those who give $20.24 or more will receive a cord to wear at commencement in recognition as a senior class philanthropist. The cord, pictured above, is part green to represent your gift and part gold to represent your future giving as a Graduate Of the Last Decade. Cords will be available for pick-up from 11 AM to 2 PM on 12/3/24 and 12/4/24 at Thomas Cooper Library and the 2nd floor lobby of Russell House.

The Impact When you make your senior class legacy gift, you get to decide what part of the student experience you’ll be enhancing. As a senior, you’ve had time to reflect on the significance of your time at USC and what has had the greatest impact. Choose to give to scholarships, your college/school, veteran services, student life or to the Carolina Fund which supports the area of greatest need.

Thanks for Your Support We are grateful that you and your classmates are following in the footsteps of amazing students and alumni who believe in giving back. Your contribution helps USC shine, and future Gamecocks will remember the Class of 2024 for it.
