USCB announces alumni plaza, tribute program

From staff reports

Parents, alumni and supporters of the University of South Carolina Beaufort are invited to honor or celebrate a loved one through USCB’s new tribute program and alumni plaza.

This fundraising effort allows individuals and families to inscribe a commemorative paver for the brick alumni plaza on the Bluffton campus. Ingraved plaques can be added to rocking chairs (Bluffton and Beaufort campuses) and benches (Blufffton and Hilton Head Island campuses).

Inscriptions in the alumni plaza name USCB and USC Columbia graduates. The rocking chairs and benches can be dedicated to anyone.

Money raised through this initiative will go to the USCB Annual Fund, which provides capital for the university’s greatest needs. This community support allows USCB to respond to issues and opportunities across its three campuses.

The link to order a paver or plaque tribute is https://giving.uscb.edu/sfp/admn/uscb-naming-campaign. For more information, contact Mary Lurry, USCB Director of Development, at 843-208-8032 or mlurry@uscb.edu.
