Where do I Invest for Maximum Impact?
Many interests... Mighty impact. Your support secures the future of the university and its mission to transform generations of lives in the Lowcountry and far beyond.
USCB Annual Fund
When you invest in the USCB Annual Fund, you allow us to address our areas of greatest
need.
USC Beaufort Fund
When you invest in the USC Beaufort Fund, you propel university-wide growth projects
and initiatives prioritized by the Office of the Chancellor and the Office of the
Provost.
USCB Athletics Fund
When you invest in the USCB Athletics Fund, you support USCB’s scholar athletes and
the academic, athletic, citizenship and community-service programs through which they
achieve excellence on and off the fields.
Sand Shark Society (Alumni) Fund
When you invest in the Sand Shark Society Fund, you fuel vital lifelong learning and
career-development initiatives and supports for alumni Sand Sharks.
USCB Challenge Match
Thanks to the generosity of two anonymous USCB donors, when you invest in the Challenge
Match, you ensure endowed support for USCB’s Center for the Arts and cutting-edge
Marine Biology research.
USCB Family Fund (For USCB employees and retirees only)
As a USCB faculty or staff member, when you invest in the Family Fund, you ensure
that the university is able to sustain a level of excellence commensurate with your
level of professionalism. Your commitment to USCB’s students, programs and activities
is second-to-none. And we thank you.
USCB Student Emergency Fund
When you invest in the Student Emergency Fund, you play a critical role in supporting
student success during uncertain times. More than half of our students are first-generation,
nearly half are Pell Grant-eligible, and very nearly all work full or part-time to
make ends meet. During uncertain times, many struggle. This fund helps to ensure that
no Sand Shark is forced to choose between their education and their next meal.

Sand Shark Scholarship Funds
When you invest in endowed and unendowed scholarships, you keep doors of opportunity
open wide for high-achieving, low-income students. USCB is a place of first choice
for students of all backgrounds. Scholarship funds ensure that we can meet students
where they are and give them the hard and soft skills they need to reach their highest
potential.
Endowed Faculty Chairs
When you invest in faculty endowments, you bring brilliant minds and innovative research
to our community. Strong instruction yields a strong workforce. Ground-breaking research
produces powerful solutions to real-world challenges, creating a stronger, healthier,
more productive region.
Investments in Specific Departments, Institutes and Centers
When your investments follow your passion, you create opportunities to ignite that
passion in others.
