Go Norse Fund

The Go Norse Fund (GNF) is the fundraising arm of Northern Kentucky University's Department of Intercollegiate Athletics. In collaboration with the members of the GNF Board and the NKU Foundation, the GNF is responsible for raising the necessary funds to support student-athletes scholarships and capital projects required to build and maintain our current athletic facilities. In addition, monies raised by the GNF are used to support a variety of programs that enhance the overall experience of NKU student-athletes.

For the last four years, the 'A Night with the Norse' athletics fundraiser has been held at Great American Ballpark and has seen incredible success. As the single-largest fundraising event for NKU Athletics, the event has raised over $100,000 each year, totaling over $415,000 raised in support of all 17 sports programs. 

These uncertain times have challenged us to reassess the way we raise money for our athletics department. Instead of having an in-person event, the 'A Week with the Norse' virtual fundraising event will be held the week of April 16-April 24.
