How Your Gift Helps Students
Your generosity makes a real difference in the lives of UHD students. Donations help
cover tuition, books, fees, and essential supplies, while also supporting student
travel to conferences, faculty research and outreach, and on-campus employment opportunities
for students. Gifts to the CPS Excellence Fund allow the Dean to respond to emerging opportunities and immediate needs as they arise.
The CPS Excellence Fund also supports Gator with Grit Scholarships to students majoring in any CPS discipline. Department Chairs and Directors recommend
students for these awards when they are facing unexpected challenges that could impact
their studies. Gator with Grit Scholarship recognize students who “exemplify the
True Grit and Spirit of UHD, no matter what obstacles that confront them.”
Six students have received awards of up to $500 since March!
