Ways To Support
Join the Purple Circle!
Annual Support
There is no better way to directly impact the current and future state of UCA Athletics than by joining the Purple Circle and committing to an annual donation.
The sole purpose is to create a premium student-athlete experience for all Bears and Sugar Bears, by helping offset some of the Athletic Department’s biggest expenses: scholarships, facility upgrades, and student-athlete programming. Annual donations can be made payable via cash, check, or credit card. You may also make a pledge in monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual installments. These installments can be drafted directly from your bank account or credit card. The option to pay through UCA Payroll Deduction is also available for UCA employees.
Join the Purple CircleChampionship Resource Funds
Due to the changing landscape of college athletics and UCA's decision to opt-in to the House Settlement beginning in 2026-27, these Championship Resource Funds present a BRAND NEW avenue for donors to support UCA Athletics and our student-athletes directly. These new sport-specific funds, which are housed in the UCA Foundation, will supplement our revenue sharing efforts and provide an opportunity for supporters and friends of the University to directly impact the acquisition and retention efforts of our programs. Should you wish to contribute to one of our Championship Resource Funds and assist us in our preparation for this new era, please contact our Athletics Development team at (501) 450-3150
