Cameron Falk always aspired to be a Georgia Bulldog, but finances stood in his way. A world of opportunities opened up to Cameron when he received the James W. Childs Georgia Commitment Scholarship. Now he is determined to seize every opportunity available to him at the University.

His academic pursuits in finance, international business, and Spanish have only been part of his UGA experience. Since arriving on campus in August 2017, Cameron has networked with alumni, completed internship opportunities, and studied abroad in Argentina. Cameron had the opportunity to speak at both the President’s Cabinet meeting and UGA Foundation Trustees orientation. The Georgia Commitment Scholarship Program has helped Cameron meet like-minded students and grow quickly accustomed to college life. He is a member of the Honors Program and serves as a resident assistant at Russell Hall.

As the inaugural recipient of the James W. Childs Scholarship, which was established by Jim Childs (BBA ’90), Cameron had the memorable opportunity to meet one of his donors. Jim Childs is a UGA Foundation Trustee and a longtime supporter of the University of Georgia. He established this scholarship to pave the way for students who aspire to be the business leaders of the future.
