Charge Ahead Challenge

This campaign ended on October 01, 2017, but you can still make a gift to Hillsdale College by clicking here!

As the summer winds down and fades into fall, we at Hillsdale are looking forward to another year of challenge (and another year of rejoicing). As a Charger athlete, you know personally the commitment and discipline required to compete athletically and academically at Hillsdale. And, you know the necessary support and commitment required from so many others—coaches, teammates, faculty, staff, donors—to help our athletes and teams find success on their fields and courts.

So, throughout the month of September, we are challenging our Charger athletes to give back to support the programs that helped develop their character, their work ethic, and their perseverance to pursue a life of commitment and purpose.

Our students’ ability to compete well depends on the support of alumni—and as Chargers we should be leading the pack! Every dollar given toward the athletic department or a particular sport counts as participation in the Charge Ahead Challenge!

Will you please join us as we support and inspire our Charger Athletes in their pursuit of excellence? Collectively, we can make a great impact on the programs that benefitted us. Together, we can charge on to victory in the blue and white way.
