Building Together Through Every Gift to UREC

University Recreation is where community comes to life. From sport clubs and intramurals to fitness programs and outdoor adventures, UREC is powered by students who show up, lead boldly, and compete with pride. Your gift helps fuel those experiences and expand opportunities for the teams and programs that make campus feel like home. This Niner Nation Gives, we’re Building Together - and that starts with students.

This year during the 49 hours, every student gift - up to $100 - is matched x2 by a generous Alumni couple.
That means a $10 gift becomes $30 of direct impact for the club, program, or fund you choose to support!

Student participation helps unlock bonus funds for campus and amplifies the overall impact of Giving Day. When you give, you’re contributing to something bigger while directly supporting what matters most to you!


How to Make Your Impact

1. Choose what you care about.
Support a sport club, program, or UREC initiative that’s shaped your Niner experience.

2. Support how you can.
Every single dollar counts and can help unlock even more bonus funds! No gift is too small to make a difference.

3. Build momentum.
Invite friends to join you and show what Niner pride looks like in action!

Together, we’re building stronger teams, stronger programs, and a stronger UNC Charlotte!

Go Niners.
