A 2018 study found that one-in-five Marquette students – most, commuter students without access to campus dining facilities – had experienced food insecurity during the past school year. Gifts of all sizes make an impact. A gift of $25 has the potential to feed one student for a full week.

Please consider a gift to the Marquette Women's Soccer Excellence Fund with your registration. When you give, you help provide access to a world-class Marquette education while providing current and future student-athletes with transformational opportunities.
