Giving BACK to Clemson: Staff Senate
Staff Senate works diligently to fundraise for two major programs that invest our staff, the Staff Senate Scholarship and Employee Emergency Fund.
Staff Senate Scholarship
In 1989, the Senate established an academic scholarship that was awarded to the child of a staff member. Today, fifteen (15) $2,500 scholarships are awarded based on need and academic achievement.
These scholarships are made possible through generous support from Clemson University staff, faculty, administrators and community friends.
Staff and Faculty Emergency Fund
The Employee Emergency Fund is a program to assist employees who are experiencing times of financial hardship due to unexpected, unforeseen, and unavoidable circumstances, such as the current COVID-19 pandemic, that can create financial hardship.
