Three Stripes for Life Giving
Three Stripes for Life is a homage to the history of Edinboro Cross Country and Track and Field. Different coaches, different facilities, different running routes, and different eras. One thing is common for everyone who has come through the program-Three Stripes. Everyone has worn the Three Stripes on their back and understand the importance of representing Edinboro. Becoming the best one can be in all aspects of their life, being willing to introduce risk to strive for greatness, and immense appetite for work are all traits we are instilling in the team.
The landscape of Division II athletics has changed dramatically in recent years. Our program has been fighting to keep up. Last year saw the addition of men’s indoor track and field. Our total roster is now above 90 athletes. In just the last 4 years, 2 PSAC records, and 18 school records have been broken. To continue building momentum, we must continue investing in our student-athletes and providing them with the resources necessary to succeed. Now more than ever, your support is critical to the future of Edinboro XC/TF.
Funds raised through Three Stripes for Life Giving will directly support athletic scholarships, team travel, and training equipment, helping us provide a championship-level experience for our student-athletes while preserving the tradition and excellence that Edinboro XCTF is known for.
We need your help to keep Edinboro XCTF strong and relevant on the national stage. Join us in building the future of Edinboro XCTF by making a gift today.
Fundraising Goal and Use of Funds
Goal: $20,000 and 200 Donors
Funds raised through the Three Stripes for Life Giving campaign will directly support:
- Athletic Scholarships to help attract and retain talented student-athletes.
- Team Travel expenses associated with competition opportunities and championship events.
- Training Equipment upgrades that enhance athlete development, performance, and safety.
In recent years we have used giving day funds on scholarships, treadmills, an outdoor throws cage, a new top pad for our pole vault mat, a steeplechase water jump barrier upgrade, and farther trips outside of our normal travel schedule.
Consider Monthly Giving
We strongly encourage supporters to consider a monthly gift. Monthly giving is an easy and affordable way to make a lasting impact on Edinboro XC/Track.
Over a 3-year commitment:
- $7/month = $250
- $14/month = $500
- $28/month = $1,000
- $42/month = $1,500
- $56/month = $2,000
- $69/month = $2,500
- $83/month = $3,000
- $139/month = $5,000
No matter the amount, every monthly gift helps provide scholarships, fund team travel, and upgrade training equipment for our student-athletes.
Our goal is simple: 200 donors raising $20,000 to help Edinboro XC/Track and Field compete with the nation's best programs. Every gift matters. Every donor matters. Together, we can continue building pride in the Three Stripes.
