Athletics & Recreation Student Support Fund
Sport shapes lives. It teaches resilience, leadership, and teamwork—skills that last far beyond the final whistle.
At Simon Fraser University, our student-athletes are balancing intense training with academic excellence. Your support helps them thrive—as athletes, as scholars, and as future leaders.
Your gift to the Athletics & Recreation Student Support Fund:
- Removes financial barriers and expands scholarships for student-athletes
- Supports vital resources like sports medicine, physical therapy, and essential equipment
- Invests in wellbeing, recovery, and long-term success
Every gift—large or small—helps student-athletes focus on what matters: their growth, their goals, and their future.
Make your gift to the Athletics & Recreation Student Support Fund or a fund that’s meaningful for you. Monthly giving is a convenient way to support student-athletes year-round.
Meet Mitch, a track and field athlete who embodies this impact:
“(Support from the community) took away my financial stress. Most importantly, it pushed me to do well both academically and athletically to feel like I’ve earned my keep.”
Receiving financial aid meant Mitch could coach high school athletes instead of taking another job. “When you support athletes like me, it doesn’t stop with us, it has a positive ripple effect.”
“The smartest people I know carry both the mindset of a student—always learning—and the mindset of an athlete—always pushing.”
