Supporting Athletics at Gaston College

Softball Players

In our first year of operation (2021-22), the Gaston College Athletic Department provided athletic and academic opportunities for more than 70 student-athletes across five sports. Our students rely on the passionate commitment of Gaston College alumni and friends to meet our most pressing needs. We invite you to join our team and help us grow the Gaston College Athletic Program and provide athletic scholarships. 

The Gaston College Athletic Fund, held by the Gaston College Foundation, is designated to ensure the successful growth of Gaston College athletes by providing scholarship opportunities and support throughout the academic year and meeting the greatest needs of the Gaston College Athletic Department.

Your contribution to the Athletic Fund could provide:

  • Books for one semester for a student-athlete ($500)
  • A partial scholarship for an in-state student-athlete ($1,000)
  • A full scholarship for an in-state student-athlete ($2,500)
  • A partial scholarship for an out-of-state student-athlete ($5,000)
