The Citadel Foundation

Today we honor the brave men and women who sacrificed everything for our freedom.

On Memorial Day, The Citadel honors the men and women of the Armed Forces who sacrificed their lives in service to our country.

It's Heat Safety Awareness Week! Now’s the perfect time to explore the Lowcountry Heat Action Plan Toolkit and learn how to stay safe during the summer heat.

Check out the toolkit and additional resources provided by The Lt. Col. James B. Near, Jr., USAF, ’77 Center for Climate Studies to help you beat the heat this season.

Citadel cadets head to Kenya this week for the fifth annual Kenya Medical Camp. We are beyond grateful for the continued generosity of donors who make opportunities like this possible!

Citadel cadets to provide medical care in Kenya Nearly two dozen cadets will head to Kenya to provide medical care for three weeks at the Citadel Medical Camp, the largest free medical camp in Kenya, recognized by the Ministry of Health.

It’s National Volunteer Week and we’re shining a light on the incredible individuals who give their time, talent, and heart to The Citadel and help make what we do possible.

To our wonderful volunteers, thank you! Your dedication and commitment to The Citadel and the Corps of Cadets is seen and felt every day in the lives you touch and the future you help shape.

The Citadel Foundation hosted the annual Cadet Letter Writing sessions over the last couple weeks giving scholarship recipients the opportunity to thank their donors with a handwritten note.

These notes are a reminder that giving goes far beyond financial support—it creates personal connections and a lasting impact on the lives of these cadets. We're excited to say over 1,000 thank-you notes were sent out this year!

Wishing the entire Citadel community a happy and healthy holiday!
