Impact of Giving
Yale Athletic Associations supplement the Department budget and help cover the
cost of expenses in the areas of recruiting, out-of-region travel,
prospect visits, equipment, communications, and other annual team
expenses. These contributions provide our coaches with the resources
necessary to attract the best and brightest to come to Yale. All
Association contributions are considered gifts to Yale. All expenditures
of Associations are governed by departmental policy for compliance
with Yale, Ivy League, and NCAA requirements.
Ways To Give
Yale is supported by alumni, parents, and friends in many ways - through unrestricted annual giving; capital gifts in support of priorities such as student aid, faculty research, and facilities; special reunion contributions; planned gifts; and grants and awards from corporations and foundations. However you choose to support Yale - and at whatever level - your generosity is both essential and truly appreciated. Every gift counts.
