Gifts to Support the Piper Athletic Association contribute to...
The Piper Athletic Association (PAA) Fund supports ALL of our scholar-athletes at Hamline University, and this year for Fall Athletics Fundraising Week we’ve set our goal at $5,000. While there are several specific priorities that the PAA Fund will be used to address this year, one of our main focuses is sponsoring mental health performance coaching for our scholar-athletes. Make your gift today and support the mental health and resiliency of Hamline scholar-athletes.
Mental health performance coaching offers invaluable benefits for scholar-athletes by enhancing their emotional intelligence, resilience, and focus. By addressing mental well-being, scholar-athletes are empowered to better manage stress, build confidence, and optimize their performance on and off the field. Ultimately, mental health support fosters a holistic approach to athletic development, leading to improved overall well-being and a greater chance of achieving athletic and academic goals.
With your support, Hamline Athletics will continue to provide all the resources we can to support scholar-athletes on and off the field. Please make a gift today and help us reach our goals!
Go Pipers!

Any additional funds raised more than our goal will go toward enhancing the Hamline scholar-athlete experience by supporting initiatives such as Piper to Piper Student-Athlete Luncheon, scholar-athlete leadership development, and more.

Thank you for your incredible generosity during Fall Athletics Fundraising Week! Your contributions directly support our scholar-athletes' success, both on and off the field.
Your gift helps us maintain top-tier programs, recruit talented scholar-athletes, and provide essential resources for their training and development.
Thank you for cheering on our Pipers and investing in their future.
Stay tuned for campaign results and a special "Thank You" video.
Go Pipers!
