Give

When you give to the our Clemson Club, you help make it possible to offer scholarships to local students, organize local events, and facilitate a vibrant network Baltimore/DC Tigers.

Scholarship

Did you know our Clemson Club’s Memorial Endowed Scholarship Fund helps local high school students attend Clemson? These students have made the best decision of their lives (to officially become Tigers!) and these scholarships help make that possible.

Each year, several scholarships are awarded by Clemson’s Admissions Office from our Club’s Scholarship Fund to DC/MD/VA students who are very grateful for the support as they begin their Clemson journey. These scholarships enable the recipients to pay in-state tuition.

Howard Clark Memorial Memberships

Howard passed away in June 2020. Because he didn’t have any local relatives, our Clemson Family was his family. He was always one of the Club’s biggest supporters and an icon at Club events. To celebrate Howard and his commitment to Clemson, our free new grad/current student memberships will now be given in his honor.

Your sponsorship of $25 will create a membership for a deserving student or young alumnus; you are welcome to sponsor one or more.  Each sponsorship is treated as an Annual Fund gift.

After making your gift, please email info@clemsonclub.org to ensure your receive proper credit.  Thank you!
