Celebrate our legacy and support future athletic excellence as we aim to raise $100,000 on Blue Nation Giving Day in celebration of the 50th anniversary of varsity athletics at Wellesley College.
All gifts made during our Blue Nation Giving day fuel the incredible work of Friends of Athletics, allowing Wellesley to provide support for all of our varsity and club student-athletes.
Your support of Friends of Wellesley Athletics helped us raise over $110,000 for our varsity and club programs and student-athletes on Blue Nation Giving Day!
