Giving

Donors are not only making the difference in students’ lives, but in our society too because a well-educated population improves the lives of everyone.

As a student from Colombia, this scholarship means more to me than words can fully express—it is a tremendous help not only financially, but also emotionally and academically. Coming from a country where access to international educational opportunities can often be limited due to economic challenges, your support has opened a door that would have otherwise remained closed.

To all the individuals, families, and businesses who have donated to Clarke University over the years, I thank you. Clarke has served as a second home to me for the past 4 years, and I wouldn’t have wished my college experience to go any other way. Much of this had to do with your generous donations to campus, clubs, the athletic teams, and academics.

As someone who receives a scholarship, I can’t tell you how amazing it is. The impact a gift makes doesn’t just affect me, but also my family as they help me pay for college. Every little bit, even a dollar, can make a huge difference for someone in need.
