Donor Support

How do you make the Tyee difference?

Let us count the ways!

1. Academic achievement

Thanks to donor-funded tutoring, learning assessments and other support, Husky student-athletes earned an average 3.14 GPA in the fall quarter. Eighteen of our 22 programs averaged a 3.0 GPA or better.

2. National prestige

Your gifts propelled us to a top 10 position in the fall 2016 standings for the Directors Cup, which recognizes overall success among all NCAA Division I programs. Highlights included a No. 4 ranking and NCAA playoff berth for Football and an Elite Eight appearance for Volleyball.

3. Winning teams

Washington Gymnastics’ incredible season spurred the Gym Dawgs to a berth in the NCAA Championships for the first time since 1998.

4. Scholarship endowments

More than 150 generous donors have established scholarship endowments, generating $2.52 million dollars a year in tuition support, providing our student-athletes a world class UW education.

5. The Competitive Edge Fund

Your generosity has contributed more than $10 million so far to give our student-athletes and teams a competitive edge. But we still need you to reach our campaign goal. Visit uwtyeeclub.org and make a real difference today.

Infinite.

Our gratitude — Thank you for your support!
