Brothers of Lafayette Football

Your Impact:

Thanks to the Brothers of Lafayette, our college can now provide mentorship and support for traditionally socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds and underrepresented student-athletes so they can make the most of their Lafayette experience in the present and post-graduation.

Impact to Date - What's Next:

The Brothers of Lafayette’s first 15 donors have helped raise more than $125,000 toward their $1 million goal for this endowed fund. We are appreciative of those leaders and are seeking new and additional donors. To learn more or if you are interested in a multi-year commitment, contact Dan Cason, assistant athletic director for advancement at (610) 330-5039 or via email at casond@lafayette.edu.

The Program's Focus:

The program is focused on providing current football players of underrepresented groups a safe space to voice general concerns and learn the building blocks needed to develop professionally. The program is unique in the sense that the players will have an advisory council of strong male role models who have “walked in the shoes of current players” through the Lafayette experience, both on and off the field.
