ATHLETICS

Each year, the Bowling Green State University community comes together to celebrate BGSU One Day – the University’s dedicated day of giving. This 36-hour online fundraising effort has continued to inspire Falcons to give back to their favorite BGSU program, college or area of interest and empower life-changing opportunities for our students.

During last year’s One Day, Athletics raised $381,295 from 406 donors. Though the One Day concept is rooted in the goal of donor participation at ANY level, this year’s Athletics goal is $500,000 and 500 donors.

Falcon Club members are reminded that you can fully renew your annual membership gift during One Day and receive the benefits of Falcon Club membership for the 2023-24 school year, including, but not limited to, parking privileges for 2023 Football and 2023-24 Basketball and Hockey season ticket holders.

Additionally, this year all BGSU sport programs are listing 2-3 immediate needs on their giving pages to encourage gifts to individual sport enhancement funds. While these gifts will not count towards Falcon Club membership for 2023-24, these gifts can provide support for critical and immediate program needs above and beyond operational budgets. For fans or letter winners of specific teams, or for donors who are not motivated by Falcon Club benefits, this provides an avenue to participate on One Day and contribute to the success of an individual sport program.
