Student-athletes at The University of Scranton ARE MORE than just athletes. They are scholars who embody our Jesuit ideals, going beyond the norm to become transformational leaders in all pursuits. They are supported by coaches and teammates who ARE MORE than allies; they are family.
The goal of the Scranton Athletics Fund is to provide our student-athletes with a transformational experience that is reflective of our Jesuit identity and challenges them to become “men and women for others.” Your gift can be designated to the area of greatest need or to your favorite team.

Experience
I contribute to Scranton Athletics because I believe that enriching a student-athlete’s college experience and helping the athletics program grow will ultimately pay dividends in the future, not only for student-athletes, but the University as well.

A student-athlete embodies what we hope for in all students – the ability to strengthen friendships, strive for success, remain disciplined and have fun. Giving to Scranton Athletics is an excellent way to assist our student-athletes in reaching these goals.
