Our Mission
The Mizzou Tiger Club of St. Louis is a Missouri-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the athletic programs and student-athletes of the University of Missouri.
As an event-driven organization, our mission is twofold:
- To raise funds that benefit all Mizzou student-athletes — across both men’s and women’s sports
- To increase awareness and engagement with the University’s athletic programs by hosting high-impact events featuring coaches, athletes, and experts from a wide range of sports and disciplines
Unlike organizations that focus solely on high-profile sports, we proudly showcase the breadth of Mizzou Athletics, including:
- Women’s programs: Golf, volleyball, basketball, gymnastics, softball, cheer, soccer, and the Golden Girls
- Men’s programs: Wrestling, golf, baseball, swimming, track & field, basketball, and football
We also feature speakers from key areas such as compliance, sports medicine, and athletic department leadership, ensuring our members enjoy a well-rounded, informative, and inspiring experience.
Through fundraising, education, and community-building, we aim to strengthen Tiger pride across the greater St. Louis area — and help fuel the future of Mizzou Athletics.
