Why Give
The cost to support student-athletes at the Division I level has risen significantly over the last several years. Now more than ever, we need to provide our student-athletes with the resources to compete at the highest level. Fully funding our scholarship obligations through Osprey Club giving will have a direct impact on the continued growth of our Athletic Department, the overall experience of our approximately 300 student-athletes and ultimately the success of the University of North Florida as a place of higher learning. The designation of your gift is up to you! Supporters of the Osprey Club have the ability to help any area in athletics of which they are passionate.
The Osprey Club is the official venue through which loyal fans, friends, and alumni of UNF can provide support to the athletic department or sport-specific programs.
