Digger Athletics
Investing in the Future of Montana Tech Athletics with the Digger Endowed Scholarship


Montana Tech Athletics has chosen DayOne to promote and raise funds for the Digger Athletics Endowed Scholarship. Montana Technological University is committed to recruiting and developing student-athletes who will perform successfully in the classroom and compete at a championship level. 

Montana Tech is place for opportunity and innovation, where determined doers thrive. Montana tech athletics is committed to providing transformative experiences for our students while striving for excellence across all programs. 


Our goal is to enrich and support our student-athletes while delivering the world-class education, one-on-one attention, and family environment that is a hallmark for Montana Tech.  


We are committed to building a strong legacy for Digger Athletics and we invite you to help us with a gift to the Digger Athletics Endowed Scholarship, which will make sure we are able to provide scholarships for our student-athletes now and years from now.  


We are incredibly grateful to Ryan '84 and Lisa Lance who have committed to give $1 million towards athletics scholarships at Montana Tech. 

Because of their generous investment, during DayOne we are able to offer $100,000 in matching funds.  This means that your gift to the Digger Athletics Endowed Scholarship will be matched 1:1, which means if you make a gift of $1,000 it will have the impact of $2,000. 


By raising money for the Digger Athletics Endowed Scholarship we are investing in the future of Digger Athletics and our student-athletes. 

 

Please consider giving today to the Digger Athletics Endowed Scholarship  and make an impact for Montana Tech Athletes. Please help us spread the word! Share this project on social media, by email and tell your friends!
