Last month, supporters of Terrier Athletics responded to the February Friends Fund Challenge, a $10,000 participation-based challenge in support of BU’s student-athletes. Sponsored by BU alumnus Dennis J. McNichol (SMG’82), this challenge was a resounding success and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their continued support of Boston University.
Here are some key highlights:
- Every single varsity team received a gift as a result of the challenge
- Nearly 1,000 former student-athletes made a donation to support their team
- Over 425 former student-athletes who did not make a gift last year supported the challenge
- BONUS DAY on February 20 was one of the most successful giving days in the history of BU Athletics, with 642 donations in just 24 hours
Thank you for your support of Terrier Athletics. The continued loyalty and dedication of our alumni, parents, friends, and student-athletes enables us to provide a once in a lifetime opportunity for the young men and women who proudly wear scarlet and white. Thanks to you, we are Changing the Game.
