Rally for Purple & Gold: Help Build The Instant Wine Cellar

The Husky Rugby community has an important opportunity coming up to rally around the program and make a real impact. The Purple & Gold Fundraiser Dinner on April 25, 2026, hosted by the Husky Rugby Alumni Association, is the program’s primary fundraiser and one of the biggest nights of the year. It’s a chance for alumni, families, friends, and supporters to come together, celebrate the program, and directly support the student-athlete experience.
