Thank you for choosing to give to Cheyney University!

America’s first two HBCUs—are coming together in a spirited Battle of the Firsts Donor Challenge!

As we count down to the Cheyney vs Lincoln Men’s Basketball game on December 7, 2025, alumni and supporters have been invited to show their pride by making a gift to their University.

The goal is simple: Rally the highest number of donors and claim victory in this historic rivalry and SHARE this challenge with others. Every gift supports scholarships, strengthens student success, and ensures our institutions continue preparing the next generation of leaders. Stand with your HBCU, honor our shared legacy, and be counted in this year’s Battle of the Firsts!
