Supporting NYU Athletics is easy, and there are many ways to make your gift. Every contribution, no matter the size or method, plays a vital role in helping our student-athletes excel.
Excel Together Fund
The Excel Together Fund is the cornerstone of philanthropic support for NYU Athletics, providing resources that elevate the student-athlete experience across all 23 varsity programs. Gifts to this annual fund allow NYU Athletics leadership to invest in strategic priorities, including facility enhancements and holistic performance initiatives.
Your support helps bring to life capital projects that ensure our student- athletes have access to top-tier training and competition environments. It also fuels our Peak Performance program - an integrated multidisciplinary approach to health, recovery, and development that includes sports medicine, mental conditioning, nutrition, and data-driven training.
Together, these investments reduce injury risk, strengthen our competitive edge, and help NYU student-athletes excel on the field, in the classroom, and beyond.
Endowments
Endowments ensure long-term strength and sustainability for NYU Athletics. These enduring funds generate annual income that supports scholarships, coaching positions, and programmatic needs, helping us attract top talent and provide resources that stand the test of time. Creating or contributing to an endowment is one of the most impactful ways to leave a lasting legacy.
Team Funds
Gifts to team-specific funds directly support the needs of individual varsity programs. These funds give coaches the flexibility to elevate the student-athlete experience through enhancing travel opportunities, upgrading equipment, and offering additional training and competition. Whether you're a proud alum, parent, or fan, giving to a team fund is a powerful way to champion a program close to your heart.
Campus Recreation (Club Sports)
Athletics at NYU extend far beyond varsity competition. Through our robust Club Sports and Intramural programs, students of all skill levels have the opportunity to stay active, build community, and represent Violet pride.
With more than 30 Club Sports teams, students can compete in regional and national events, develop leadership skills, and enjoy a sense of camaraderie through sport. Gifts to the Club Sports Fund help provide critical support for travel, equipment, and training.
