Campus Recreation

📣 A message from the Campus Recreation Team -

Campus Recreation is excited to participate in this year's Giving Day + March Mania fundraising campaign. With a dual goal of raising $100,000, we aim to enhance the recreational and fitness experience for all students while increasing support for individual club sports. Your generous support of Campus Recreation directly impacts three critical areas that shape the future of our students’ health, well-being, and academic success: Club Sports, Fitness and Instructional Programs, and Recreational/Intramural Offerings. With your support, we can continue to create new opportunities, sustain existing programs, and reduce cost barriers—fostering a holistic and balanced college experience beyond the classroom.

Campus Rec General Fund Goal: $50,000 Your support of the general fund will directly benefit all areas of Campus Recreation. This year we would like to highlight improvements to Club Sports facilities including an AED for the club sports fields, portable lighting, field aeration and increased storage. We are also looking to upgrade facilities and essential programming. These funds will ensure we continue to offer state-of-the-art resources, expand student opportunities, and foster a healthy, well-rounded campus environment for current and future generations.

Key initiatives for 2026-2027

• Purchase an AED for the club sports fields on Goodman Campus.
• Portable lighting for club/IM fields
• Field aeration to improve playing surfaces
• Upgrade facilities and essential fitness programs

Individual Club Sports Funding Goal: $50,000 Additionally, we seek to raise $50,000 to support individual club sports programs. These funds will break financial barriers for club-athletes and provide the necessary resources to help each club thrive, promoting skill development, leadership, and personal growth among our athletes.

Campus Recreation is a cornerstone of student life at Lehigh—whether it's the energy at Taylor Gym, the excitement on the intramural fields, or the competition in Club Sport events. Your support helps us continue these meaningful programs and create lasting, impactful experiences for Lehigh students. Thank you for helping us foster a strong, healthy community through Campus Recreation!
