Charlotte Athletics

The Charlotte 49ers Athletic Foundation provides financial assistance to over 500 male and female student-athletes in 19 varsity sports. Donations to the funds listed below provide the resources for our annual operating costs including scholarships, nutrition, sports medicine, student-athlete development, recruiting, academic services, technology, travel, and other miscellaneous needs.  These gifts are critical to the success of our programs and student-athletes.

Charlotte student-athletes are continuing to experience success in the American Athletic Conference, in the classroom, and in the community.

These accomplishments would not be possible without the generous support from Niner Nation to our annual fund. Your continued support during Niner Nation Gives will help all 500+ student-athletes get the resources they need to compete in the American Athletic Conference.

Thank you for your support of Charlotte Athletics and GO NINERS!
