Empowering Students, Funding the Future

The Belltower Student Foundation is a student-run organization at Augusta University whose mission is to strengthen the sense of community at Augusta University through philanthropy, civic engagement, and volunteerism. The students who comprise the foundation board are responsible for investing an endowment portfolio and allocating the earnings of that endowment to philanthropic uses across Augusta University and the Augusta region.

“I originally joined the Belltower Student Foundation to explore my interests in finance, leadership, and advocacy. The BSF is a fantastic opportunity where a diverse range of students are tasked with managing a student-run investment fund whose returns are deployed in the local community as philanthropy. As the Chair of the Board, I am focused on strengthening BSF’s role in Augusta. To anyone with similar interest in finance, leadership, and community advocacy, I would strongly encourage you to reach out about applying to our foundation.”
