Since
the Bear Backers were established in the early 1970's, loyal Cal supporters have
been contributing to the lives of Golden Bear students athletes. Our commitment
is to provide our coaches and student athletes with the resources necessary to
compete for national championships on an annual basis.

Why
Give?
Each new gift is vital to our continued success on the playing fields
and in the classrooms. Your generosity has a direct impact on today's student
athletes as well as the long term health of our entire athletics future. As the
costs of education and the operations continue to escalate the need for your continued
financial support of Cal student-athletes is critical.
