Thank you for being part of “our team” and contributing to the overall success of Fairfield Athletics this past year! We will release our Annual Report later this summer — but I’m grateful to report that YOU have given back in record numbers this year — helping set new highs for operational support for our 20 varsity sports teams and donor participation!
As I share each year, our mission is to make sure our student-athletes are “Built for Life” in mind, body, and spirit. Your investment helps not only build championship teams, but more importantly provides access to an outstanding Fairfield University education and prepares each student-athlete for life after Fairfield. Please consider making a gift to celebrate our student-athlete success!
As we look ahead – I hope to see you at a summer alumni event or at one of our fall events to kick-off the 2025-26 academic year:
