About the Panther Club

Frequently Asked Questions

The Panther Club is Adelphi University’s official organization dedicated to the support of the athletics department. It is an avenue for Adelphi alumni, parents, and friends to support our student-athletes on the fields of play, in the community and in the classroom.

The Panther Club is led by an executive committee which meets periodically to coordinate club and fund raising activities. The committee works closely with the University administration, the Director of Athletics, and the athletics staff to identify prospective donors and organize outreach plans. Through an expanding network of members, The Panther Club provides opportunities for alumni, parents and friends of the University to gather while also providing crucial support to our student-athletes and their goals.

Why the Panther Club?

All contributions to the Panther Club assist the athletics department in providing the best possible experience for our student-athletes. Our goals are to support the student-athletes in earning their degree, assist them in becoming leaders on campus and providing them every resource possible to become champions in their sport. Your support allows us to meet the rising costs associated with college athletics today while recruiting the best and brightest student-athletes for tomorrow.

Can I direct my gift to a specific team?

Are my contributions tax-deductible?
