Established 1995

Since 1995 we have been presenting a Citadel football player a scholarship in the name of Citadel Football Association. This fund was established through the Memorial Fund at The Citadel Brigadier Foundation. Each year monies are applied to this Fund through contributions, different fund raising events, and surplus monies from our operating funds at the end of our physical year. To date we have been able to contribute some $48,000.00 toward a fully funded Scholarship of $500,000.00.

The “Steak Night” Program is in its 39th straight year. Steak Night is held on Monday nights and starts at 6:00 p.m. This program provides steaks and other select entrees to the entire football team and its support staff every week throughout the season. The program has been beneficial for the players not only from a weight retention aspect, but also from a morale point of view as they eat great meals each week with Citadel Alumni and friends who support this beneficial program. The players greatly appreciate this program and look forward to meeting the sponsors each week.

Cost: $750.00 to feed all of the players and coaches, (about 150+ people) per week.

If a loved one or friend passes away and you’d like to honor their memory while supporting Citadel Football, we ask that you consider donating towards the CFA Memorial Scholarship or the Andy Clawson Memorial Sponsorship.

Make your check out to Citadel Foundation and put the scholarship of your choice on the memo line. If you’d like for the money to go towards the CFA General Fund rather than the scholarship fund, you can note that at this time.
