Homecoming…a Time to Reflect, Honor, and Inspire
At Prairie View A&M, Homecoming isn’t just an event — it’s an experience. It’s the sound of the Marching Storm kicking off the parade, the friendly-but-serious BBQ battles between RVs, and the sunrise over “The Hill” — chilly in the morning, hot by midday, and cool again by the time the hugs and goodbyes come. It’s the pride of standing shoulder to shoulder in purple and gold, reliving the moments when Prairie View was shaping not just your college years, but your future.
Think about those moments as a student when you needed a little extra help — a scholarship, a book voucher, or even support to stay enrolled. For many of us, someone else’s generosity made the difference. Today, as alumni, we have the chance to be that “someone” for the next generation of Panthers.
Homecoming is more than a reunion; it’s a reminder of how far we’ve come and why it matters to give back. By paying it forward, you ensure that students walking the Hill now have the same opportunities and unforgettable experiences that shaped your PV story.
Which College or School Will Take Home the Trophy?
The PVAMU Homecoming Giving Challenge is an annual alumni competition that rallies Panthers to give back to the colleges and schools that built their journey. Each year, alumni come together to show their pride, give back, and compete for two ultimate prizes:
🏆 Trophy #1 for the college or school that raises the most money
🏆 Trophy #2 for the college or school with the most individual donors
This is more than a fundraiser — it’s about Panther pride, alumni participation, and proving your college or school can rise to the challenge.
The Goals
Funds Raised – Each college and school aims for $10,000
Alumni Participation – The more alumni who give, the stronger your college stands in the competition.
Every gift matters! Whether you give $10, $50, $100, or more, you move your college or school closer to victory and ensure future Panthers can live the same legacy you cherish.
The clock is ticking. The Challenge ends at kickoff of the Homecoming Game!
Join the Competition and fuel the Panther Pride!
Don’t let your college or school fall behind. Every alumni gift brings us closer to victory and every dollar makes a direct impact on student success.
