Choose Your Pirate Athletics Challenge

This campaign ended on April 25, 2017, but you can still make a gift to Southwestern University by clicking here!

We reached our Choose Your Southwestern bonus challenge goal of 650 donors campus-wide! Collectively through all Pirate Athletic teams, we raised over $20,000 in support of our student-athletes by unlocking $4,500 from our generous anonymous donor.

We couldn't have done it without the support of each and every alumnus, student, parent, faculty, staff and friend of Southwestern who gave generously and spread the word to support causes that they care most about.


Thank YOU for choosing Pirate Athletics and Southwestern!


UPDATE: We reached our goal! The Challenge doesn’t stop there… Now if the campus-wide Choose Your Southwestern Challenge campaign reaches 650 donors we will unlock an additional $1000 for the Pirate Fund and $20,000 to the Southwestern Fund! 



Southwestern athletes, alumni, parents, coaches, faculty and staff are coming together to support all Pirate athletic teams through the Choose Your Pirate Athletics Challenge. Make a gift of any size to support the Pirate Fund (general athletics support), your favorite team, or support multiple teams.

All gifts count toward the overall Choose Your Southwestern Challenge. Click here for more info. If Athletics (all teams combined) reaches our overall goal of 150 donors, the Pirate Fund will receive an additional $3500!

Help spread the word! Click here for ways you can help encourage others to help us reach our goal by April 24.
