Name: Harry Hampton Fund Scholarship
Award Amount: $5,000 per year (renewable up to four years)
Information And Eligibility:
The Harry Hampton Fund Scholarship is a prestigious conservation-themed academic award administered by the Hampton Wildlife Fund, a nonprofit organization dedicated to wildlife education, natural resource stewardship, and environmental awareness in South Carolina. Established to honor the legacy of Harry R.E. Hampton — a lifelong conservationist and leader in promoting responsible wildlife and land management — this scholarship supports students who are passionate about pursuing careers that protect and manage natural ecosystems.
Each year, one graduating senior who intends to enroll in an accredited college or university in South Carolina receives the scholarship. Recipients can earn $5,000 annually for up to four consecutive years, providing meaningful financial support throughout their undergraduate education. This renewable structure helps students focus on long-term academic success in rigorous natural resources disciplines.
The scholarship is specifically designed for students planning to major in fields directly related to natural resources and environmental science, such as wildlife biology, fisheries biology, forestry, marine science, environmental science, or other closely related disciplines. It is intentionally structured to encourage South Carolina students to pursue careers that will contribute to conservation efforts, sustainable resource management, and the health of natural habitats across the region.
Unlike broader academic awards, selection for this scholarship goes beyond grades alone. The award committee reviews academic achievement alongside a demonstrated commitment to conservation, involvement in environmental initiatives, and leadership within related extracurricular activities. Applicants who articulate a clear vision for how they plan to use their education to make a tangible impact on wildlife preservation, resource management, or ecological research tend to be especially competitive.
Recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress to retain the renewable portion of the scholarship. This ongoing requirement encourages scholars to remain engaged with their field of study and continue contributing to environmental and community efforts throughout college.
