Gator Tracks
Gator Tracks is an “angel tree”- type program that takes place during the holiday season. Local elementary school teachers provide us with children’s first names and shoe sizes, after recognizing that they are in need of new sneakers. Student-athletes and UAA staff then pick a name or two and purchase a new pair of sneakers for that child.

Before the fall semester is over, student-athletes play “Santa” and deliver the shoes to each school in the program. Thanks to all the people that participated in the Gator Tracks shoe drive. Over the past three years of the program's existence, we have collected enough shoes and monetary donations to benefit over 850 students at five local elementary schools.

Climb for Cancer
Climb for Cancer is an event for children who are either battling with or have survived cancer.  The kids are grouped by age and then partnered with a group of student-athletes.  They rotate through 4 stations where they play soccer, football, basketball, and volleyball.  The fun lasts all morning and culminates with the children and their families sharing a pizza lunch with the UF student-athletes.
