PITTSBURGH — Aaron Donald is no stranger to giving back. The strength and performance center at Pitt’s South Side facility is named after him because he became the youngest seven-figure donor in university history.

It wasn’t a one-off event either, as he donated $200,000 to the Football Championship Drive on Pitt’s Day of Giving last year, and he’s officially made another $200,000 donation this year.

There have been over 100 donations to Pitt’s Football Championship Fund, with nine hours left to donate as of 3 p.m., including $20,000 from head coach Pat Narduzzi and his family.
