New for 2026! Support Your Sport

Forester Athletics Support Your Sport is Lake Forest College’s annual athletics giving campaign, bringing alumni, families, fans, and friends together to invest in today’s student-athletes. Held September 17–19, the three-day campaign invites donors to support any of the College’s 25 varsity athletic programs. With matching gifts, challenges, and team standings throughout the campaign, Support Your Sport brings the Forester community together to strengthen our programs and enhance the student-athlete experience.
