The UCA Purple Circle is the official support organization for UCA Athletics, providing an avenue for alumni, businesses, family and friends to invest in UCA student-athletes. The Purple Circle strives to connect with all fans of UCA athletics, and is committed to acting with integrity in the best interest of our stakeholders.
How will my gift be put to use?
Annually, Purple Circle members contribute in excess of $500,000 to be used by UCA's 19 varsity sports teams. These funds cover "over and above" expenditures and are critical to the success of the UCA Athletics Department. Annual donations to the Purple Circle may be directed toward the following efforts:
- Academic Support - It is a top priority that our student-athletes graduate. Your annual gift will aid in that process by providing much needed scholarship support for over 450 UCA student-athletes.
- Student-Athlete Success - Rising costs negatively affect our travel, equipment, and student-athlete recruitment budgets. Your annual gift ensures that UCA student-athletes and coaches are equipped with the resources needed to achieve excellence!
- Facility Enhancements - To attract excellent prospective student-athletes, continual improvement to UCA athletic facilities is key. Your annual gift will play a huge role in this process!
