Lake Forest College

About
At Lake Forest College, we celebrate the unique contributions of each sport. Behind every game, practice, and victory are the resources that make it all possible - resources that rely on the support of our Forester Athletics community.  
 
By directing your gift to a specific team, you directly contribute to: 
 

• Elevated Travel Experiences: Competing against top programs across the country gives student-athletes the chance to grow, challenge themselves, and represent Forester Athletics with pride. Your support ensures they have the resources to travel, prepare, and perform at their very best.
• Cutting-Edge Equipment: Access to advanced training gear and innovative technology empowers student-athletes to reach new levels of performance while staying healthy and prepared for competition.
• Transformational Opportunities: From championship events to team-building experiences, your gift helps create meaningful moments that shape lifelong memories and strengthen the student-athlete journey.

 
These gifts don’t just cover "expenses" - they’re investments in the success and growth of your program. By giving back, you help future student-athletes have access to the same (or even better!) opportunities as those who came before them. 
 
Why Your Gift Matters
Operating costs like travel and equipment aren’t just line items; they’re what fuel the team’s ability to succeed. Every gift - no matter the size - shows your commitment to the program, and when combined with contributions from teammates, alumni, parents and supporters, it adds up to make a huge difference. 

Your gift makes an immediate difference. Support the sport you’re passionate about and become part of the Tradition of Excellence.
