What is the Camel Athletics Fund?
The Camel Athletics Fund (CAF), which is part of the Connecticut College Fund, is the sum of all annual gifts made to the College in support of our varsity student-athletes. These gifts can be directed to a specific varsity team or to Camel Athletics overall. By making a gift to the team of your choice or to CAF, you provide support for the necessary resources our student-athletes and coaches need to lead every team to success. Gifts support equipment, uniforms, travel, facilities, leadership development, recruitment, coaching, and more.
How are leaderboard standings calculated? How can I support my team(s)?
Leaderboard standings are based on Athletics Affiliations. Gift designations do not contribute to leaderboard standings. Participation percentages are calculated based on each team's total number of current student-athletes, parents of student-athletes, and alumni athletes. When you make your gift, choose your College affiliation and your Athletics affiliation to ensure your contribution counts in your team's leaderboard standings. For more information, check the "Race to the Top 🏁" section.
When should I give in order to participate in All In To Win?
Online gifts must be made by October 1. All check, stock, DAF, or other gifts must be received by October 5.
Can I dedicate my gift to someone?
Yes, you can make a gift in honor of (or in memory of) someone special to you. This option is available after you complete your gift.
Why does the College need my support every year?
Quite simply, because Connecticut College Fund dollars are spent every year. With each new fiscal year comes a new operating budget, and with each new operating budget comes the need for renewed support.
Can I mail a check/make a gift over the phone?
Yes! You can call 1-800-888-7549 to make a gift over the phone, or you can send a check made payable to Connecticut College with a note of where you would like your support designated to:
Connecticut College - Becker House, 270 Mohegan Avenue, New London, CT 06320
