The University of Akron Athletics

2026 Akron Athletics Day of Giving is Here!
April 22 | General
Dear Zips Nation,
Â
At the University of Akron (UA), our student-athletes represent the very best of what it means to compete with purpose, persevere through challenge, and excel both on and off the field. Our success is made possible through the generous support of donors like you — and this year, we are calling on our entire community to come together for UA's Annual Day of Giving.
Â
Each of our programs has identified specific needs, and our coaches and student athletes are working hard to reach their team goals. From facility enhancements to equipment, travel support, and beyond, every gift — no matter the size — directly fuels the experiences and opportunities our student-athletes deserve.
Â
We encourage you to make your gift today and help build early momentum for our teams. Your gift sends a powerful message that UA Athletics has a community standing firmly behind it.
Â
Please visit our Day of Giving page today and choose the program that means the most to you.
Â
Together, we can make this Day of Giving our strongest yet — and ensure that every Zip student-athlete has what they need to succeed. Thank you for your continued passion, loyalty, and generosity and for Helping us Make the Climb!
Â
Sincerely,
Â

Dr. Andrew T. Goodrich
Athletic Director
