Keeping the UCF Spirit Alive

“Your Day of Giving impact matters to Marching Knights because without your help, we wouldn’t have access to high-quality equipment, uniforms and rehearsal space. These contributions benefit not only us, but many more students for years to come.”

Matthew Lewis, Marching Knights 2024 President


The Marching Knights are more than just a band; they’re the soundtrack of UCF’s most beloved traditions and biggest events. Balancing rigorous class schedules with long rehearsals, they energize game days, rally the Kingdom and represent Knight Nation at home and away with pride.

Your generous gift during UCF Day of Giving helped make all of this possible. Because of you, more than 400 students from a variety of UCF colleges have access to critical resources: a covered rehearsal space to protect from rain and sun, safety lighting for evening practices, upgraded turf for better performance, uniforms to look sharp and scholarships to reward their dedication.



Thank you Knight Nation!

We are excited to share the impact of your generosity and the stories of what you make possible. At the same time, we are also looking ahead, confident that with your continued support, there is so much more we can achieve together.
