The Minutemen Club is excited to announce the creation of the Script U Scholarship Society, a fundraising initiative created to support the growing investment Massachusetts Athletics is making in our 21 sport programs. With the expected changes in NCAA Division I athletics coming later this Spring, it will require us to increase our scholarship support to stay competitive. Each Script U gift will allow passionate UMass alums and fans to help UMass meet the total annual scholarship cost and additional benefits for UMass student-athletes.

Donors to the Script U Scholarship Society will directly support student-athlete scholarships and help our sport programs recruit, retain, and develop the best and brightest from across our region, the country and internationally. Every tax-deductible gift is an investment in our student-athletes and the future of academic and competitive success for UMass Athletics.
