Give Marquette Day - Sport Excellence Fund Challenge

On Your Marq, Get Set, Give!

Give Marquette Day is making a comeback!

Marquette University held our first ever Give Marquette Day last year and had great success thanks to our generous alumni, parents and friends. In just one day, 1,591 donors contributed $500,010 to support Marquette students, faculty and programs. Of these results, 545 donors contributed $116,408 to Sport Excellence Funds.

We're excited to bring back Give Marquette Day and hope you are, too! Our overarching goal this year is to secure 1,600 donors across the university on Thursday, February 21, 2019.

For our Sport Excellence Funds specifically, our goal is to secure the $25,000 dollar-for-dollar match given generously by an anonymous alumni. A gift of any size, to any Sport Excellence Fund, is eligible for this match.

Sport Excellence Funds are imperative as they provide support for the needs of each program such as augmenting recruiting and travel budgets, leadership development and team building programming, technological and equipment upgrades, funding trips to face international competition, and other needs of the program. These funds allow Marquette Athletics to continue the tradition of excellence in providing our student-athletes with top-notch education, competition, and developmental experiences. 

Stay tuned for updates on progress and special giving challenges that will make your gift have an even bigger impact! Visit marquette.edu/give-marquette-day for updates on other areas of the university.

We Are Marquette!
