(Leavenworth, Kan.) – The ذكذكتسئµ will host its Annual Athletic Day of Giving on Nov. 13. This 24-hour event offers alumni, parents, friends, and fans of the university the chance to show their support for the ذكذكتسئµ Athletic Department and its student-athletes.

The Athletic Day of Giving is a key part of ذكذكتسئµâ€™s ongoing efforts to enhance the student-athlete experience through scholarships, equipment purchases, travel expenses, and other resources that directly benefit the university’s 26 sports teams. Contributions made on this day will ensure that ذكذكتسئµ student-athletes have the necessary tools and support to succeed both in the classroom and in competition.

Donors can designate their gifts to specific teams or make a general contribution to the overall athletic department, allowing them to support the areas they are most passionate about.

How to Participate:

  • When: Nov. 13, 2024, from 12 a.m. to 11:59 p.m. (CST)
  • Where: Online donations can be made at
  • Who: Open to alumni, friends, family, and all supporters of ذكذكتسئµ Athletics

“We’re incredibly grateful for the support of our Spires community, and the Athletic Day of Giving is an opportunity to unite everyone who is passionate about ذكذكتسئµ Athletics,â€‌ Vice President of Athletics Rob Miller said. “Every gift, no matter the size, makes a lasting impact on our programs and student-athletes. We’re excited to see the positive difference this day will make.â€‌

ذكذكتسئµ will also honor the memory of Sister Madonna Fink on Athletic Day of Giving. For many years, Sister Madonna attended every Saint Mary home game and baked cookies for student-athletes traveling to road contests. For every gift over $25 during the Athletic Day of Giving, Saint Mary will send a cookie to a student, team, or department of the donor’s choice.
