Working with several of our local hospitality association partners, our national associations and our members, T.H.E. Foundation offers scholarships to help students with their college education. If your company has a scholarship program, there is a good chance T.H.E. Foundation can find matching dollars.  With matching funds, your company can give more scholarships, in most cases up to twice as much!  For more information on donating to our Scholarship program, please contact Xavier Meier at (803)-765-9000 or by e-mail.
