Fundraising

Fund your fun.

Fundraising is a vital aspect of the Club Sport experience. Teams who experience the most fundraising success are those who are able to plan ahead and think both critically and creatively about their future goals and needs. Please remember to always check with your advisor before initiating any fundraising efforts on behalf of your team.

This is a list of local business or events where our teams have had past success generating some fundraising dollars for their club. You are in no way bound to this list, and we always encourage teams to be creative and share their good ideas.

We hope to grow this list and keep it current with proper contact information. Please contact your advisor if you have other opportunities to add to this list or if you find that any information on this list has changed.
