Personal Message
Thank you for supporting TRiO Scholars at Xavier University! TRIO provides personalized support and a strong supportive community. We are dedicated to empowering and producing excellent students, leaders, and professionals!
Why are donations necessary?
Students have the opportunity to participate in academic enrichment seminars, graduate school trips, and further enjoy community-building entertainment experiences. Therefore, the funds raised during March Gladness will go towards supporting TRIO students with a funding source of emergency funds for unexpected situations that arise, and also help offset the cost of engagement opportunities such as cultural events that build community. TRIO also hosts graduate school visits each year to help students prepare for life after college and a portion of these funds can help offset the cost of these experiences.
