Support Expendable Scholarships

Support a student through their four years at Chatham by creating a named, expendable scholarship. Expendable scholarships provide an invaluable source of immediate financial support for our students. You’ll receive an update annually on the student who benefited from your generosity. An annual commitment of $2,500 a year for four years creates a named expendable scholarship and supports one student through the entirety of their education. Set up a recurring annual scholarship payment using our secure online giving form, or email AnnualFund@chatham.edu.
