Sheila Brown Fund for Athletics
Built by Character. Funded by Community. Support the Wildcats on Give to St. Kate's Day!
The St. Kate’s athletic department joins the university on its annual giving day as a dedicated participant in the campus-wide celebration of generosity and school spirit.

This annual event unites alumni, families, and fans to rally behind St. Kate’s athletic programs, student-athletes, and staff. Every gift helps provide resources that elevate the Wildcats’ experience—on the playing fields and in the classroom. 

Within the athletic campaign, the department's goal is to raise $75,000 in support of nearly 200 student-athletes, with each team setting its own fundraising target. Donors can direct their contributions to a specific program or to the overall athletics fund supporting the greatest areas of need.

Throughout the campaign, Wildcats fans will hear directly from student-athletes and coaches as they share their stories about what competing for St. Kate’s means to them. Videos, social media challenges, and live leaderboard updates will highlight the friendly competition between teams as they strive to meet their goals.

Friends and supporters are invited to participate by making a gift on November 12th and becoming an advocate by sharing our message to inspire others.
