Hello wonderful 2021 donors,
I am once again reaching out on behalf of the 2024 Cal Tri Crowdfunding campaign. To those of you who have already graciously donated, THANK YOU! Our team could not be successful without your generosity. Your donations have helped us reach to new heights far past our original goal. We are now at a new goal of $12,000 dollars for this years crowdfunding campaign.
We have just ⏱️ 12 HOURS LEFT ⏱️ of crowdfunding for 2024, and we believe we can reach our super stretch goal of ⭐ 12,000 DOLLARS ⭐
If you or someone you know would like to support our team, the link to donate is here: http://crowdfund.berkeley.edu/tri-24. All donations are tax deductible and sincerely appreciated!
We are a student-run and student-funded athletic club that receives little financial support from the school. We are the largest collegiate triathlon team in the country and one of the most decorated collegiate triathlon teams in history - and we have achieved all of this merely through the financial backing of team fundraising efforts and membership dues. The cost of training equipment, dues, and race travel can be expensive for any college student and a barrier for those hoping to get involved in the sport. Crowdfunding allows us to make triathlon an accessible sports for everyone who wants to get active and join the Cal Tri family <3
We can't thank you enough for being a part of the Cal Tri Family and your continued support throughout the years! Our team is currently in the process of gearing up for our National Competition, see the video below to see our team working hard and pushing each other for our favorite race of the season! Thank you all and GO BEARS!

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our crowdfunding campaign! Because of you amazing Cal Tri friends, family, and alumni, we were able to raise a total of $6,520! The pandemic this year has been hard on our team. We have lost much of what binds us together like practicing together, races, and camps but these funds will be crucial to help our team start growing even stronger than before. This year has given us an opportunity to reflect on how we can improve the resilience of our team and the inclusivity of triathlon as a whole. We’ve found new ways to connect with each other and stay motivated like Dean’s Challenge, which is up to 65 - 5k run and 500m swim time - entries from schools across the country. We really appreciate your continued support through this tough time.
Cal Triathlon thanks you sincerely for the impact you have made on our team and hopes you are doing well and staying safe.
Loving and healthy wishes,
Grace Dwyer
Cal Tri would like to thank everyone who's gotten us to $3,285 (41% of our goal)! We still have a ways to go in this last week of the campaign! We appreciate your support and hope you will help us to continue spreading the word about our campaign. Our team is currently training on our own for DEAN’S CHALLENGE! Students and coaches from schools across the country are submitting 5k run and 500m swim time trials to the competition run by our very own coach, Dean Harper. It is a fierce competition between schools and individuals, with 50 entries so far. Cal Tri is excited to have some friendly competition and something to work towards this semester but with the help of the money we raise from crowdfunding we are looking forward to in person races (hopefully) soon.
