The Catamount Challenge is all about supporting your favorite team or athletic program - with a dash of friendly competition thrown in for fun. Make a gift by October 22 at noon and help them win prizes up to $5,000!
There are three prizes a team or program can win:
(1) $2,500 for most overall donors
(2) $1,500 for most dollars raised
(3) $1,000 for most alumni donors
Any gift above $5 to any team or program counts!
And there are just two simple rules to the competition:
1. One gift per person, per team. But, you can give one gift to as many teams as you'd like, so go crazy!
2. Don't make gifts on behalf of other people. Instead, become an advocate and share!
All gifts to athletic teams will go directly to their excellence fund. And whatever team or program you support, your gift directly helps students. So, make your gift today and support our amazing students!
(Note: Gifts during the challenge do not qualify for Victory Club benefits.)
The 6th Catamount Challenge was record-setting across the board!
Thank you to all the amazing donors who supported our athletic programs. 1,625 donors gave $372,402 - both all-time records!
Men's Lacrosse won the prize for most money raised with $108,075 - an all-time record for most money raised by a program in any Catamount Challenge.
Swimming and Diving won the prizes for most donors (454) and most alumni donors (111) - also both all-time records!
And nearly every program raised a record amount of money to support their student-athletes.
There is so much to celebrate with this year's Catamount Challenge - thank you again to all those who donated and shared.
Go Cats!
This year's record-breaking Catamount Challenge is almost over.
Just two hours left to make your gift and share with your teammates, friends, and family.
