Friends of HSF

Step up to the challenge! If we hit our goal of $2,000, a generous donor will add a $10,000 gift to the total funds for Friends of HSF. This means YOU can help us raise $12,000 to enhance the programs in the Honors, Scholars, and Fellows (HSF) house and enrich the lives of students and friends of HSF through financial and professional support.

Friends of HSF is comprised of alumni and friends of the FSU Honors Program, Office of National Fellowships (ONF), and the Center for Undergraduate Research and Academic Engagement (CRE). Friends of HSF can personally connect with our students and provide financial, educational, personal, and professional development opportunities for FSU’s highest-achieving students.
