USF ATHLETICS

Gifts to USF ATHLETICS provide student-athletes, coaches, and staff with critical resources to excel in competition, the classroom, and the community. You are helping to comprehensively prepare over 400 student-athletes in meaningful ways like nutrition, athletic medicine, strength and conditioning, team travel, and recruiting. Make an impact and support an area you are passionate about. 

Support your team!
There are countless ways in which you can support USF Athletics and further the impact on the lives of our student-athletes. This year you can donate to:

  • General Athletics - provide the foundation that supports every student-athlete and every team. Your gift will be used to benefit the greatest need of the entire athletic department.
  • 15 Teams - support your favorite team(s) and help student-athletes continue to compete at the highest level. Your gift is critical to the sustained success of each and every one of our programs.
