SUNY Brockport Athletics invites alumni, fans, parents, and supporters to mark their calendars for the upcoming SUNY Brockport Days of Giving, which will run March 25 – April 8, 2026. The annual campaign rallies the Brockport community to support initiatives that enhance student success, including scholarships, student emergency funds, equity and inclusion initiatives, experiential learning opportunities, and Golden Eagle athletics.
The university's Days of Giving has grown into a major annual fundraising tradition that unites the Brockport community. The 2025 campaign raised more than $361,000 from 1,657 donors, with gifts supporting key initiatives across campus including Brockport Athletics, academic departments, and the Student Emergency Fund. The campaign often features special challenges that unlock additional funding for specific areas, encouraging friendly competition and greater engagement among alumni and supporters.
Brockport Athletics will once again rally support for its 24 varsity programs and more than 850 student-athletes, with gifts helping fund priorities such as equipment, recruiting, travel opportunities, facility enhancements, and overall student-athlete development.
