The annual Get HER in the Game Fundraiser is going virtual this year and is set for Thursday, Oct. 8, from 5-6 p.m.
 
"The Get HER in the Game fundraiser is a great celebration in support of women student-athletes at Saint Louis University," SLU Director of Athletics Chris May said. "I'm extremely encouraged and appreciative of the host committee for their hard work and commitment to women student-athletes.  We are thrilled to announce a generous gift from an anonymous donor that will match the first $25,000 raised. It will be an unbelievable event and I am looking forward to bringing our community together virtually on Oct. 8."

The fundraiser, which has been held annually since 2006, supports scholarship and athletic opportunities for female student-athletes at SLU. Last year's event raised more than $80,000 for the important initiative.
 
Four current student-athletes have benefited directly from the Get HER in the Game initiative, including this year's recipient, Kaiya Luneckas of the softball team. Luneckas is a freshman from West Branch, Iowa.
