The 2025 "Here We Go Saints" donor challenge broke previously set records for the event, raising an unprecedented $754,154 in support of St. Lawrence University athletics. Over the course of the campaign, held September 29-30, 2025, 2,990 donors contributed to the effort, which is another all-time high for the campaign.

"This year's record-breaking results have clearly demonstrated the power of incredible collaborative efforts within the St. Lawrence University community, said Franco Bari, Director of Intercollegiate Athletics. "We are so grateful that Laurentians across the nation acted on our call for support. A special thank you goes to the Phelps family for their invaluable generosity and leadership. To the advancement team and each athletics program: your tireless efforts made this record-breaking endeavor possible. The impact of these gifts will elevate our athletic program offerings as our student-athletes strive for success in sport, the classroom and beyond. Our Laurentian community is clearly second to none. Thank you to all who contributed to this year's 'Here We Go Saints' campaign."

The funds raised will be used to strengthen the infrastructure and resources behind St. Lawrence's athletic programs, ensuring continued excellence and growth across all sports. As in previous years, the Phelps Family Challenge, hosted by Barry '69 and Pat Hitchcock Phelps '69, P'96, played a pivotal role in driving momentum.

Their incentive-based challenge encouraged giving at key milestones, helping unlock additional funds and energize participation across the Laurentian network.

Athletics programs across campus took to social media to rally support, with many campaigns led by student-athletes themselves. Their creativity and passion helped amplify the message and engage alumni, families, and fans in meaningful ways.

St. Lawrence University and Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation extend heartfelt thanks to every donor who participated in the 2025 "Here We Go Saints" challenge. Your support continues to set new standards for what we can achieve together.
