About

The challenge is on for Youngstown State Volleyball, and we need YOU to help us reach our fundraising goals.

Penguin Day of Giving is our 24-hour challenge to rally support for our team and help our student-athletes reach their full potential.

Your generosity during Penguin Day helps us fund:

  • Travel to matches and tournaments that provide valuable competitive experience
  • Customized team gear and essential equipment that support performance
  • Continued investment in a growing program built on discipline, teamwork and resilience

Every gift directly fuels the work that happens on and off the court: practice sessions, strength and conditioning, strategy development and the focus and teamwork required to compete at every set and every match. Your support during this 24-hour challenge ensures our athletes are ready to meet every moment with confidence.

Step up. Make your impact. Help YSU Volleyball rise to the challenge on Penguin Day of Giving.

Support YSU Sports Performance This Penguin Day!

We're excited to highlight YSU Sports Performance as another important area you can support during Penguin Day!

Led by Mary Beth George, Associate Athletic Director for Sports Performance, the department plays a vital role in preparing student-athletes across all YSU athletic programs to train and compete at the highest level.

Donations to Sports Performance will help replace aging equipment, upgrade technology and provide new training resources that directly benefit our student-athletes.

Want to support Sports Performance? You can select Sports Performance from the giving options alongside our athletic teams on the Penguin Day donation page.

Every gift makes a difference in helping our Penguins reach their full potential!
