The University of Kentucky Blue & White Fund was established in 1973 to provide a funding resource for student-athlete scholarships and a means to build and upgrade athletic facilities. In September 2002, we began the process of evaluating the Blue & White Fund. Our goal was to develop a new funding resource to replace the Blue & White Fund. This new resource should ensure fairness and equity in the season ticket allocation process, keep up with the rising cost of our student-athlete’s tuition and maintain a competitive advantage against other SEC and NCAA schools. The product of this process is the K Fund.
Just as the Blue & White Fund provided student- athlete scholarships, the K Fund will do that and more. Our goal is to provide support to the more than 450 Wildcat student-athletes and to ensure their academic and athletic success. Donations given to the K Fund will be used for:
Student-Athlete Scholarships – tuition, room, board and books
Academic Support and Career Development
Athletic Facilities Maintenance
Administrative Support
In order to adhere to a level of integrity that we are constantly striving to maintain at the University of Kentucky, we have put into practice several new procedures that will help us in our quest to be the best in the nation. It is imperative that we stay competitive with other schools in our conference and in the NCAA in terms of both athletics and fundraising.
