  • The Panther Club serves as the official fundraising unit for Pitt Athletics. We are a non-profit organization charged with raising annual funding for student-athlete scholarships. In addition to this support, the Panther Club also spearheads capital facility fundraising projects. Each year, thousands of Pitt fans pledge their support of Pitt student-athletes through donations to the Panther Club. Thanks to our loyal members, Pitt's more than 450 student-athletes, in 19 varsity sports have the opportunity to pursue an outstanding education and compete athletically at the highest level.

    Your support of Pitt Athletics and our student-athletes are greatly appreciated and will be recognized in one of the membership and benefit levels. Please print the Membership Application and make your gift TODAY!
