2022 Bearcat Challenge

Last year, we launched the first ever Bearcat Challenge, a month-long giving campaign in support of Brescia Bearcat Athletics. Thanks to alumni and supporters like you, our athletics programs were able to raise over $24,000 from 276 donors, the most successful fundraising effort in the history of Brescia Bearcat Athletics.

It is with gratitude and excitement that we invite you to make a difference in the lives of our student athletes by making a gift to the 2022 Bearcat Challenge. We know that so much of the Brescia experience happens outside the classroom, and your support helps fund the programs that develop skills our athletes will use to shape their future careers, families, and communities.

Starting November 1^st and culminating with Giving Tuesday, November 29^th, Bearcat supporters can make a gift to the athletic program of their choice, helping us reach our goal of 2 donations per player. Whether you choose to support the overall Athletic Department, or choose a specific team to support, your gift will create opportunities for Brescia students to compete in their chosen sport on an even playing field.

Plus, your donation may be matched! The Brescia University Alumni Association has again offered a $500 challenge gift to the men’s and women’s teams that end the Bearcat Challenge with the most donations per player! In addition, an anonymous donor has offered a $500 gift to the athletic team who reaches their goal first!

Thank you for your support and Go Bearcats!
