Coaching: Your gifts fund Coach Roberts' salary. Without your donations, he will not be able to coach USC. We need a steady monthly income stream to ensure he stays. We also want to establish a stipend program for our assistant coaches.

Scholarships: The Jeffrey S. Smolka Endowed Scholarship program, which was founded in 2015, has provided financial assistance to dozens of Carolina Rugby Players. We want to expand and support this program. It is valuable recruiting tool.
Events: Alumni outreach and events: As we build the Carolina Rugby Foundation, we must continue to host first class events for alumni and recruits that extend beyond Columbia.

The Carolina Rugby Foundation is the fundraising and governance body supporting the SC Men’s Rugby Football Club. Donations and contributions to the “With You” campaign are applied to the Carolina Men's Rugby Endowment Fund (b21857) through the University of South Carolina Office of Gift Processing and are tax deductible to the extent as allowed by law.
