About

ETSU supports our students! We do this by anticipating needs and responding in flexible ways. Over the past several years, countless students have been directly assisted by the Buccaneer Student Crisis Fund through small grants that help them remain enrolled and moving toward their goals. As demand for emergency assistance continues to grow, these funds need even more support. In addition to the Crisis Fund, there are several other student impact funds that make a significant difference in the lives of our Buccaneers.

We invite your support in the following areas:

  • Access ETSU: Supports inclusive higher education opportunities for students with intellectual and developmental disabilities, fostering a diverse campus community
  • Buccaneer Student Crisis Fund: Provides emergency financial assistance to ETSU students facing unforeseen hardships, ensuring they can continue their education without interruption
  • Bucky's Food Pantry: Offers free food and basic necessities to ETSU students and staff in need, promoting well-being and academic success
  • Buc$ for Books: Assists students in purchasing textbooks and essential academic materials, reducing financial barriers to learning
  • ETSU Annual Fund: Provides flexible resources to address the university's immediate needs, enhancing programs, scholarships, and campus improvements
  • ETSU Scholarships: Offers financial support to students based on merit, need, or specific criteria, making higher education more accessible
  • Mock Trial Team: Provides students with practical legal experience through simulated court cases, enhancing critical thinking and public speaking skills
