What to Support There are many ways to invest in students, faculty, and program initiatives at Harris-Stowe State University. We have identified the following areas as priorities for giving: Annual Fund State appropriations do not cover the entire cost of educating students at Harris-Stowe State University. These unrestricted funds offer flexible support to the University’s areas of greatest need. Such needs fluctuate, and targeted funds are made available as the demand occurs. Annually, this fund provides scholarships, awards, and other financial support to students, underfunded faculty research, and program initiatives. Dr. Henry Givens, Jr. Scholarship Dr. Henry Givens, Jr., President Emeritus of Harris-Stowe-State University, was a pioneer for education and a public servant. In his memory, please consider making a gift to his named scholarship fund. Funds from this scholarship will assist students with a financial need in good standing with the University. HSSU Cares Food Pantry The Food Pantry primarily serves the students of Harris-Stowe State University. Unforeseen financial challenges at times may cause our students to struggle. However, your donation to the HSSU Food Pantry helps to ensure that our student's basic needs will remain intact. Gap Fund Some students are often left with a significant financial gap after all financial aid and scholarships have been paid towards tuition. The GAP Fund was established to ensure that students could continue to receive a quality education without financial worry. This fund provides financial support to students in good academic standing who may have a small account balance after all other financial sources have been exhausted. Stars Park Revitalization Campaign Stars Park is home to the Harris-Stowe State University baseball and softball programs. The field once served as the home of the St. Louis Stars of the Negro National League from 1922-1931. The Stars Park Revitalization Campaign is a one-year effort to secure $1.35 million or more in private philanthropy for Harris-Stowe State University Athletics. This campaign is the first in HSSU history that will benefit HSSU Athletics and preserve a very important part of St. Louis and baseball history. For more information on how to make a gift in support of this campaign, call the Athletics Department at (314) 340-5721 or visit www.hssu.edu/Stars. Student Emergency Fund This fund provides emergency funding assistance for students experiencing financial hardship due to unexpected and unforeseen circumstances such as accidents, illness, death of a family member, fire damage, medical deductible, or need for temporary housing or food. Student Scholarships Harris-Stowe State University offers a number of merit-based, talent-based, and need-based scholarships. By supporting our general scholarship fund you are helping us offer more scholarships and relieve our students' financial burdens, freeing up valuable time for them to focus on their studies and gain real-world experience through internship and research opportunities.
