"I was always encouraged by my teachers to keep going. They never made me believe that I was not capable of going to college because of my hispanic origins. They provided me with all the resources I needed to succeed in high school and helped prepare me for college."

"Once I graduated Legacy Early College I felt like my family had Legacy’s full support going to and through college. I made it through college with the support of my family and Legacy. I graduated from Clemson in 2022. As I look back I am very thankful and grateful for the support of Legacy Early College, thank you guys!"

Who Is Legacy Advancement?

Legacy Advancement is a fundraising and support initiative aimed at strengthening Legacy Early College’s mission in Greenville, SC.

Through Legacy Advancement, a 501c3 Foundation, Legacy Early College seeks financial resources to further its vision of getting every child “to and through college,” regardless of their socioeconomic background.

Legacy Advancement is committed to providing school environments that promote and protect children’s health, well-being, and ability to learn by supporting healthy eating and physical activity.

Funds raised through Legacy Advancement go directly toward expanding these programs, ensuring that scholars have access to comprehensive resources such as college scholarships, dual enrollment opportunities, and essential social-emotional support that would otherwise be unavailable.

Our community's generosity empowers our scholars, and we express gratitude to each and every contributor.
