The University of Kansas Esports Program is dedicated to fostering a vibrant community of gamers, promoting teamwork, strategic thinking and competitive spirit among students. As we aim to expand our reach and enhance our facilities, we are launching a comprehensive fundraising campaign to support our esports initiatives, including scholarships, equipment upgrades, travel, and community engagement activities.
This campaign will propel our team to new heights. As a rapidly growing competitive program, we are committed to providing our players and staff with the resources necessary to excel on a national stage. Your support will help us achieve two major goals: expanding our travel opportunities and ensuring our dedicated staff members are compensated for their hard work.
Why Your Support Matters
Esports is more than just gaming—it’s about teamwork, discipline, and representing the Jayhawk spirit in a fast-growing industry. Our students train rigorously, balancing academics with their commitment to competition, and travel is a crucial component of our success. Attending tournaments and live events allows our teams to gain experience, showcase their skills and build the reputation of Kansas Esports on the collegiate level.
However, travel costs—such as transportation, lodging and registration fees—can be a barrier. With your help, we can send our teams to compete against the best without financial constraints holding us back. Additionally, our program relies on a passionate group of staff members, including coaches, analysts and production crew, who dedicate countless hours to ensuring our teams operate at the highest level. Your contributions will allow us to offer fair compensation, recognizing the effort and expertise they bring to the program.
