Make an impact.

What if you could impact the entire University of South Carolina with one gift?

Your investment in the College of Arts and Sciences Carolina Fund allows that, and more. The Carolina Fund gives us the greatest flexibility to support students in USC's largest college while also enhancing the educational experience across the Columbia campus.

Here's how the Carolina Fund will make an impact.

Elevate the student experience. 10,000 students call us their college in programs as wide ranging as biology, English, chemistry, dance, psychology and history. The Carolina Fund supports classroom enhancements, student research, study abroad and more, giving these students an education that prepares them for their future.
Connect alumni. The Carolina Fund supports alumni involvement, helping alumni stay connected to each other and serve as mentors to our students.
Support faculty excellence. Our professors and instructors teach students throughout the Columbia campus. The Carolina Fund supports their development as teachers, scholars and mentors for Carolina students.

Every day our students work on skills that will allow them to launch careers and serve their communities. So on this one day, we ask you to make an impact for them.

Your gift makes the most difference here. Can our students count on your support?

P.S. Join us for a Happy Hour at the Hunter-Gatherer Brewery at the Hangar in Columbia on March 20 from 5 - 7 p.m. All guests who donate $10 or more on Give 4 Garnet to one of our College of Arts and Sciences funds, you will receive a complimentary drink ticket as a thank you from us. We hope you can attend!
