As we continue to advance our program as a full member of NCAA Division I — the highest level of intercollegiate athletics — philanthropic support for Triton Athletics will attract the best and brightest scholar-athletes to campus through scholarships, enhance training and nutrition programs, increase alumni and community engagement, and expand our state-of-the-art facilities. Together, these initiatives will provide our Triton family new opportunities for connection through unprecedented access to a vibrant, first-class sports experience and ensure our scholar-athletes thrive in an environment that empowers their success.
ANNUAL GIVING

These yearly contributions strengthen key areas such as scholarships, sports performance, academic resources, and leadership development—ensuring Tritons have what they need to excel in competition and in the classroom. Flexible and impactful, annual gifts allow donors to support the greatest needs of UC San Diego Athletics or designate their contribution to a specific team or priority. By giving each year, you help build a strong foundation that allows every Triton to thrive.

A MESSAGE FROM THE ATHLETICS DIRECTOR
Kim Graham-Miller, Head Coach, Track & Field
1992 Olympic Gold Medalist
"Investing in athletics is not just about building champions; it's about fostering a community of resilience, teamwork, and growth. When we give back to sports, we empower the next generation to reach their full potential, both on and off the field. I was afforded the opportunities in my career because of the support given."
