Women's Basketball Support Fund

Your gift to the 2026 Women's Basketball Support Fund directly impacts our team. This fund serves as the program's discretionary fund, adding to the operating budget. These funds are used for recruiting needs, team travel, equipment, etc. and make a difference in the lives of our women's basketball student-athletes, allowing them to compete at the highest level within our program.

Women's Basketball Chancellor's Match Fund

This fund provides additional scholarship opportunities for our student-athletes. Pledges to this fund must be made over a 5-year period. Once $16,000 a year is pledged and paid, the UNCW Chancellor’s Office will provide a $12,500 match to the program.
