DONATE EARLY

CHATTANOOGA (September 30, 2025) --- The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and its campus organizations are ready for another 'Mocs Give Day' fundraising event with this year's 24-hour marathon beginning at midnight on Tuesday, October 7.
 
The 2025 edition of 'Mocs Give Day' will be the sixth in its history as year-over-year results have continued to soar and reach new heights. Last year's efforts in 2024 proved to be the best yet with shattered records and goals across the board.
 
Recapping 2024's historic fundraising effort:
 

• UTC Athletics/Mocs Club raised a record $1,731,772 all-in fundraising dollars (+56.8% YoY).
• UTC Athletics/Mocs Club received gifts from a record 880 all-in donors (+22.6%).
• As a campus, UTC raised $2,899,459 in total dollars behind 2,201 overall donors (688 first timers).

 
The funds raised towards Athletics during this initiative directly provides student-athletes in a variety of ways, including equipment, sports medicine, performance training, nutrition and educational assistance. The generous donations provide an immediate impact in bettering the overall experience.
 
"Mocs Give Day continues to be one of my favorite days of the year," Vice Chancellor for Athletics Mark Wharton stated. "It's always special how our community comes together to positively impact our student-athlete experience at UTC and provide our programs with support to help them compete at the highest levels.
 
"Mocs Give Day truly makes a day-to-day different in our department as a whole."
 
New and lofty goals are on the table for 2025 as set forth by the Mocs Club staff. With a large thanks to an anonymous group of generous donors, this year's challenges and benchmarks could make for one of the most successful Mocs Give Days in Athletics history.
 
Goals & special incentives in 2025…
 

• $400,000 and 600 supporters towards UTC Athletics Annual Fund OR the new Dare & Do Initiative (LINK).
• If those goals are reached… Athletics will unlock a $600,000 gift to the department (courtesy of an anonymous donor group).
• The first 175 supporters who gift $50+ to Athletics will receive a Chattanooga Mocs tote bag.

 
From midnight-to-midnight on October 7, donors will have the chance to win various forms of Mocs items including official Adidas team gear, signed memorabilia, and more.
