Women’s Initiatives – The Women’s Initiatives Fund directly supports all of our women’s sports and provides programming for our female student-athletes to plan for life after college.
Athletic Director’s Excellence Fund – Gifts to the AD’s Excellence Fund allow SIU’s Director of Athletics to address areas of highest priority, launch new initiatives, and take advantage of strategic opportunities across the entire athletics department.
Sport Specific Giving– Directly support the teams you care about the most. These funds help supplement team’s budgets and give coaches discretionary dollars to elevate their programs. Click the sport you want to support to make your gift.
