Join The Fight

As college athletics enter a new era marked by Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL), SFAU is seizing the moment — helpling ensure modern-day competitiveness, supporting Stanford’s football ecosystem and its unparalleled academic and athletic tradition. SFAU is working in concert with Stanford Football General Manager Andrew Luck and Head Coach Frank Reich to build a culture rooted in Stanford values that’s engineered for the future.

"Stanford can offer it all — it challenged me, supported me, and helped me grow as a player and a person,” said Christian McCaffrey, NFL All-Pro and Heisman Trophy finalist. “Now it’s our turn to give back and ensure today’s players have every opportunity to succeed at the highest level. We’re building something that lasts.

Greatness at Stanford has always started with its people—and the Stanford standard lives on in us. As SFAU, we’re coming together to rally around today’s team and support them in the following ways
