Aaron Solorzano ‘26

For 103 years, tens of thousands of students–just like Aaron–have felt drawn to Vanguard University. Your generosity makes it possible for these students to pursue their faith and discover their calling in Christ. 

As Aaron said, “Once I came to Vanguard with this eagerness–this hunger that I had for God–He really put everything on the table [for me]. And I was able to walk in confidence knowing that he’s taking care of me and blessed me.” 

Your past support impacted and blessed Vanguard students in many ways: 

> Discovered Calling: Mentorship and Bible studies hosted through each sports team, creating a character-building experience on-and-off the court, field, and pitch. 
> Academic Excellence: VU Lions boast 111 scholar-athletes with a minimum GPA of 3.5 or above.  
> Expanded Reach: In the last five years, Vanguard Athletics has grown to 19 teams and more than 425 athletes. 
> On the Rise: 3 NAIA National Championships secured in 2023 and currently in the first year of probationary phase for moving to NCAA DII. 

As we approach the end of the year, we invite you to join us in investing in Vanguard‘s future. Your contribution will empower more students to discover their potential, create meaningful communities, and grow as leaders in their own right. Together, let‘s continue to make Vanguard University a place where students like Aaron can thrive.
