Each October, F&M brings together alumni, families, students and friends for Raise Our Game, a month-long campaign to support Diplomat Athletics. Our 28 teams count on your generosity to ensure they have the equipment, training and opportunities to excel, both in competition and in their own academic and professional goals.
This year, we need your help to reach $400,000 by October 31. Each of our teams has its own unique goal, so whether you choose to support specific sports or decide to contribute to the F&M Athletic Excellence fund, you can be a part of a Diplomat win.
