Support your team

Duquesne Athletics alumni, parents and friends, your generosity has made a significant impact over the years on the Department of Athletics and our 500+ student-athletes. 

Each year, your support of the Duquesne Day of Giving has helped pave the way for Duquesne Athletics to;

  • grow and develop into a stronger brand locally, regionally and nationally,
  • provide the ultimate Division 1 student-athlete experience,
  • build championship contenders within the Atlantic 10 and Northeast Conferences.

You can make a difference!

We cannot thank you enough for your continued generosity and passion you display on this special day. A little bit goes a long way and your generosity provides these student-athletes the tools they need to pursue success in the classroom, in competition and within the Duquesne community.
