Our
Mission

Students of Georgetown Inc. (The Corp)’s Engagement and Philanthropy Chairs support mission-driven initiatives and partnerships with on and off-campus organizations, fulfilling our motto of students serving students. Our philanthropic mission seeks to elevates the platform of various on and off-campus organizations via providing educational spaces, marketing opportunities, financial partnerships, and events collaborations. 

Giving Back

A Commitment to DEI

Students of Georgetown Inc. (The Corp) seeks to maintain and constantly develop our learning in Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) to live out our mission statement of students serving students. As The Corp, we have always been at the forefront of student-centered change, but we are not a perfect company. Therefore, we are centering DEI as our praxis, not just as a theory. We seek to proactively sustain a socially conscious community for the spaces we engage in where diversity is meaningful and impactful.

Part of The Corp’s “Students Serving Students” mission is served by our philanthropic work that gives back to the Georgetown community. Our primary goal is to address the needs of students where the university isn’t able to. The Corp’s student initiatives across campus are planned and executed by the Philanthropy Chair and The Corp Philanthropy Committee (CPC) in collaboration with the Marketing department. 

A large part of the funding that Corp Philanthropy distributes is raised during the annual Corp Philanthropy Gala, which is organized by the Philanthropy Chair, CPC, and Director of Experiential Marketing. Hosted in November or December, Gala is an opportunity to celebrate the successes of Corp employees and the broader Georgetwon community. All profits from the event go back into the Georgetown community through scholarships, grants, and donations.

Who We Are

We give back
to the Georgetown community.

Our Partners

We support Georgetown student organizations by collaborating with them for proceeds drink fundraisers, where they get to fundraise for the charity or initiative of their choice through sales of a Corp drink. In past years, we’ve partnered with clubs ranging from identity affinity organizations to performance groups to club sports teams.

Our Scholarships

The primary way we give back is through scholarships for Georgetown undergraduate students. Our scholarships are small-scale, often ranging from $100-$250, but they fill important needs within the Georgetown community. Every year, we give out scholarships to help students cover the costs of textbooks, professional development needs, food subsidies, and more.
