About

Support the University of Dayton Division of Athletics

In an era of unmatched financial, regulatory and macroeconomic pressures, the Champions and Scholars Fund allows us the flexibility to support priorities amongst our athletic teams. Gifts from One Day, One Dayton will directly enhance sports program operating budgets, providing student-athletes with resources that improve their experiences as they compete with their respective teams. This includes support for scholarships, travel, equipment, gear, training and practice facilities, licensing, nutrition, film, and strength and conditioning.
