CHATTANOOGA --- The Chattanooga Mocs have a new fundraising initiative. The Mocs Club launches "All Aboard: The Drive for UTC Women's Athletics".
It is designed to raise awareness and financial support promoting excellence across all women's athletic programs.
"This is an important initiative," Vice Chancellor for Athletics Mark Wharton opened. "Women's sports have grown exponentially in every facet over the years. It's vital we cultivate this and take advantage of this opportunity. All Aboard: The Drive for UTC Women's Athletics is a great step towards achieving this goal and taking major strides both in our region and nationally.
"We have a lot to be proud of with our women's programs. It's time to expand that into the next generation of impactful Mocs."
Women's athletics is experiencing exponential growth across the nation. This cements the commitment to fostering and supporting the achievements of female athletes. "All Aboard" is not just an initiative; it's a movement aimed at propelling the success of UTC Women's Athletics to new heights.
Donor support not only enables determined female student-athletes, but also provides the resources necessary for each of them to excel at the highest levels. By donating, you are helping to contribute to enriching the unique needs & experiences chosen by student-athletes for each sport.
Each contribution, regardless of its size, represents an investment in bolstering female student-athletes through scholarships, team building, funding for international tours, career development and transformative experiences that enable them to compete at the best of their abilities. The All Aboard giving page can be found HERE.
The ability to be All Aboard in this future starts today. A donation challenge has also been issued by an anonymous donor for the initiative. If All Aboard is able to reach its goal of raising $100,000, the donor commits an additional $100,000 helping continue to grow UTC Women's Athletics.
There is also the opportunity to give more than just dollars to this next generation of Mocs. The campaign encourages individuals to sign up to be a part of the UTC mentorship program for female student-athletes. Mentors actively contribute to raising awareness and empowering female student-athletes to conquer challenges, fostering a supportive community that helps them thrive both in sports and in life.
