Championships Begin with Scholarships

Our competitors do not rest, and the Bulldog Club ensures our student-athletes have the scholarship support they need to raise the bar. Championships begin with scholarships, and through your Bulldog Club Membership student-athletes are transformed into champions, on and off the field.

For GWU to compete at the highest level across all of our NCAA Division I sports, we must elevate our expectations and increase our investments in student-athletes. That task begins today, and it begins with you.” Dr. William Downs, President

Each gift to the Bulldog Club may be eligible for a tax deduction. The Tax Cuts & Jobs Act of 2017 contained changes to Internal Revenue Code section 170(l) which impact gifts that benefit an institution of higher education. We encourage you to consult with your own tax advisors to determine how this legislation may impact the deductibility of your gifts. When making their gift, donors have the option to wave benefits associated with any membership level by notifying the Bulldog Club office. Changes in tax law do not change the importance of your gifts to GWU student-athletes. Thank you for all that you do!
Have a favorite GWU team? Support it through the My Team program. Your gift will be designated to your team of choice, enhancing that program’s potential for athletic and academic excellence.

To say I’m incredibly grateful would be an understatement. The past 3.5 years at Gardner-Webb as a student-athlete have been the most testing, yet fulfilling years that I have experienced. I have made lifelong friends and the knowledge and expertise that I have learned from my coaches I will carry for the rest of my life. Gardner-Webb has given me opportunities to grow spiritually, physically and emotionally. I cannot thank the University enough. I’m incredibly excited to see what the football team will do this year and for years to come. SkoDawgs!
The moment I stepped onto the Gardner-Webb campus, I immediately knew this was where God was calling me. I love playing volleyball, and when given the opportunity to play at the collegiate D1 level, I went for it. Not only has this community helped me further my education and let me play the game I love, but it has also helped me grow in my relationship with God. The people here are incredible, and the love and support we receive from all of our faculty, coaches, and students really does make Gardner-Webb feel like a home away from home.
It is hard to look back on my time and not smile at how unbelievably blessed I have been to be at Gardner-Webb. Since a child I always wanted to follow in the footsteps of my family members and play collegiate sports. Gardner-Webb gave me more than I could have asked for by not only fulfilling that dream, but also equipping me with knowledge in and out of the classroom that will surely pay dividends long after I graduate. The Lord has used this university to challenge me to be a better man, teammate, and friend and I am confident that much of who I am today can be credited to my time here! I can’t say thank you enough! SkoDawgs!
Five years as a student athlete teaches persistence, mental toughness, and endurance. However, it also teaches that behind every individual is a well-built support system. Between teammates, coaches, trainers, and staff I always knew there was someone in my corner. These are the influential relationships and lessons I will look back on with a smile. Making grueling practices, good days, and bad days better from words of encouragement or a simple smile. Gardner-Webb is a community in every aspect of itself and I could not be more blessed by the impact the Gardner-Webb family has made in my life.
