For another record-breaking year, UConn Athletics proudly announces the results of our 2025 Giving Tuesday campaign, with generous support from just over 2,000 Huskies and a truly remarkable showing from alumni, fans, parents and friends across the globe.
This year’s Giving Tuesday had an ambitious goal of collectively raising $500,000 from 2,000 donors; UConn Nation blew past that target, closing out the campaign with a final total of $616,570 from 2,005 donors. This incredible support for our student-athletes not only is a milestone of generosity but also reflects the growth of UConn Athletics’ donors base and ambition of our varsity programs.
Thank you UConn Nation!
If you are still interested in making an impact on our student-athletes, please visit here to make a gift.
This Giving Tuesday, we’re calling on all Husky fans, alumni, and supporters to come together and make an impact on UConn Athletics and our student-athletes. Your generosity fuels the drive, discipline, and determination that defines what it means to be “Built in Storrs. Backed by You.”
When you give, you’re investing directly in the success of every student-athlete — supporting operations, championship resources, academic services, and the facilities that help them excel, each day. Every contribution, no matter the size, strengthens UConn Athletics and the future of Husky Nation.
Your support goes beyond wins and championships. It empowers our student-athletes to achieve their goals, represent UConn with pride, and continue building a legacy of excellence.
