Your contributions to the Bryant COVID-19 Fund help bridge the financial gap for admitted and current students and families that have been economically impacted by the worldwide pandemic.

Dedicate your workout for a great cause – Get moving! Be part of the first-ever 5K/3,1-mile #WeAreBryant Virtual 5K and help us celebrate the Bryant community. This race kicks off on the date of what would have been commencement 2020, in honor of the Class of 2020.
Our goal is to connect with 500 Bryant alumni, students, staff, faculty, parents, and friends and raise $10,000.
