Our Priorities
- The Recreation & Wellness Program Fund provides financial support for GVSU students to access our programs.
- The Recreation Leadership Scholarship recognizes and rewards student leaders involved in recreation & wellness experiences.
- Our club sports, Esports and spirit programs are dues based; any support given directly to one of our team goes directly towards lowering operational costs for that team.
