MANKATO, Minn. -Â The fourth annual MavWeek
Challenge kicks off today and runs through Sunday night.
Â
The
MavWeek Challenge is a week-long fundraiser to benefit Maverick Athletics. All funds raised during the
MavWeek Challenge stay within the sport of the donor's choosing.
 Additionally, several teams have matching gifts established to start the week allowing the donor to double their impact immediately!
Â
"In a constantly changing landscape for intercollegiate athletics, the one thing that is clear is the growing need for private donor support." said Director of Athletics,
Kevin Buisman. "The MavWeek Challenge is the perfect opportunity to prime that well and offers our donors, fans, and supporters an opportunity to rally around the programs they are most passionate about."
Â
Over the first three years of the
MavWeek Challenge, over $403,000 was raised to support Minnesota State Athletics. This year's goal is $165,000.
Â
The
MavWeek Challenge is a crowdfunding initiative run with the support of University's Annual Giving office.
