Anchored for Her is a new campaign grounded in Vanderbilt’s conviction that women’s athletics are a powerful platform for leadership, excellence and opportunity. It builds on a moment of momentum across Vanderbilt Athletics. Anchored for Her’s $50 million goal will fuel investment in sustainable success for a new era of collegiate athletics.
