Harvard Friends Groups

Friends groups play an important role in sustaining a quality intercollegiate athletics program by providing funding for out of region travel, recruiting, and a variety of needs specific to each team. Friends groups host events throughout the year that enable members to connect with alumnae and current student athletes. 

All gifts to the Harvard Athletics Friends groups will receive class credit. The Department of Harvard Athletics, the Friends groups and Harvard Varsity Club encourage all alumni to make an additional gift to the Harvard College Fund to support the overall experience for our student-athletes, which includes the College’s commitment to financial aid.

For more information contact the Harvard Varsity Club at (617) 495-3535.
