What does my donation fund?
One hundred percent of your annual donation supports the University of Dayton division of athletics. Your gift will go to work immediately to provide additional scholarships for student-athletes, increase annual operating budgets, enhance and create athletic facilities, and provide the ability to attract and retain outstanding student-athletes, coaches and staff.
What if I want to designate my gift for a particular sport?
You may make a gift to the Athletics Excellence Fund in support of a specific athletic program or scholarship fund by indicating your desire at the time of payment.
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Please consult with your tax advisor.
I am not a season ticket holder. How does my contribution allow me to have access to men's basketball tickets?
Season ticket holders have first right of refusal for men's basketball tickets, and at the current date there is limited availability. When tickets are available, individuals will be contacted based on lifetime giving to athletics and the number of years as a men's basketball season ticket holder. To inquire about availability, please contact the Ticket Office at (937) 229-4433.
Does a Varsity D or Flyers Club commitment count as a donation to University of Dayton Athletics?
No. Varsity D and the Flyers Club are separate 501(c)(3) organizations operated independently from the University.
I already make an annual gift to the UD Fund. What is the difference?
An annual gift to the Athletics Excellence Fund is specifically designated to the athletic program.
Will I be considered for membership in other University of Dayton giving societies?
All past and future giving to the athletic program will be recognized as appropriate in the John Stuart Society (lifetime giving). Annual giving will be recognized by the University as appropriate.
