Bearcats Spirit Squads

Throughout the year, the University of Cincinnati Bearcat mascot, Cheerleaders and Dancers are hard at work on the sidelines, visible on campus, and active in the Cincinnati community as UC’s ambassadors and #1 Fans. These student-athletes learn valuable lessons in teamwork and commitment that will stay with them forever. They see long-term goals become achievements and learn how to overcome adversity. Through these experiences they make memories and friendships that will last a lifetime. You can help us inspire UC pride by making a gift to this year’s #GivingTuesday.

By making a tax-deductible gift, you are supporting the current team members along with contributing to the growth and success of the program. On behalf of the University of Cincinnati Bearcat mascot, Cheerleaders and Dancers, thank you for making a difference!

UC and UC Health employees can give via payroll deduction today.
