UNH Football Fundraising Priorities
Thank you for your interest in supporting UNH Football. Your generosity plays a direct role in shaping the student-athlete experience, strengthening our competitive edge, and building a program that reflects the values, grit, and pride of UNH Football. One-hundred percent of your gift made using the priority links below is directed to the football fundraising priority you select, and all contributions are 100% tax deductible. Your support helps give our coaches and student-athletes every opportunity to succeed in competition, in the classroom, and in life.
Our program is built on people. The young men who wear the UNH jersey, the coaches who pour everything into developing them, and the dedicated fans, alumni, and supporters. These priorities reflect where we stand and where we are going. When you support UNH Football, you are investing directly in our players, our staff, and the future of this program. Thank you.
— Head Coach Sean Goldrich '15
Priority 1: The UNH Football Fund
Elevating the Student-Athlete Experience
The student-athlete experience is at the heart of everything we do, and in today’s college football landscape it has never been more important. This fund allows us to invest in the core needs that shape recruitment, retention, and the day-to-day lives of our players.
Your support strengthens:
- Nutrition (Team meals, Fueling Station items, protein shakes, etc.)
- Summer Training Access (Summer housing, courses, and meal plans)
- Equipment and Training Gear (Cleats, jerseys, helmets, lifting shoes, practice equipment)
- And other critical operational needs across the program
Priority 2: Football Victory Fund
Providing Supplemental Financial Support to Our Players
College athletics is evolving quickly, and student-athletes are looking for clarity on how programs support them directly. The Football Victory Fund provides the ability to directly enhance the student-athlete’s financial package; up to $12,000 per player per year.
This fund helps UNH Football:
- Compete with peer programs in the NIL/revenue sharing era
- Recruit and retain top talent
- Offer meaningful financial support beyond traditional scholarships
Priority 3: Football Coaching Excellence Fund
Retaining Exceptional Coaches
Great coaches shape great teams. They mentor, teach, and develop the young men who represent UNH on and off the field. This fund ensures we can retain talented staff who embody the values of UNH Football.
This fund helps UNH Football:
- Compete nationally in hiring
- Retain the best coaches and their recruited players
- Build stability and continuity within the program
