Charleston Southern Fund

The Charleston Southern Fund is our annual fund that provides unrestricted scholarship support for students. Every gift to the Charleston Southern Fund goes directly to help students receive their education at CSU.

Buy a Brick Program

Personalizing a brick is a great way to celebrate your academic achievements at Charleston Southern, to commemorate friendships and memories made, to honor your favorite faculty or staff member or to memorialize a loved one. Our current and future alumni, as well as faculty, staff, coaches, parents and friends of the university are encouraged to personalize a brick on the Reflection Pond walkway.

Board of Visitors Scholarship Program

This important support group is a channel for involvement and networking of distinguished citizens and leaders who are interested in furthering the university’s mission and providing assistance in the areas of planning, promotion, and resource development. Financial contributions given to our Board of Visitors Scholarship Program empowers current and future Buccaneers to earn their degree and pursue their purpose while easing the burden of a higher education.

Buc Club

There are many levels of giving available that can assist with student-athletic scholarships and increase the Buccaneer spirit! With 16 teams in action throughout the year, this opportunity is ideal for all sports lovers.

Endowed Gifts

Endowed gifts are gifts that continue giving year after year through scholarships, professorships, academic chairs and other academic areas of interest. When you establish an endowed gift, you decide the criteria for the recipient and make a profound impact in the recipient’s educational pursuit.

The Legacy Society

Giving to the university through planned giving passes on your values for generations to come.
