We provide grants, mentorship, and resources to ensure talented athletes have the academic foundation to succeed in life, long after the final whistle blows.
Your contributions directly support student-athletes in need. Here’s what we’ve achieved together in the last year.
The Sidey Fund is proud to partner with the Concussion & CTE Foundation® in support of athlete brain health, concussion education, and long-term safety.
Together, we support the Concussion & CTE Foundation HelpLine for Assumption University alumni — a free resource connecting former athletes with medical guidance, peer support, and critical information for those experiencing long-term symptoms related to concussion, CTE, and brain trauma.
This partnership honors the legacy of Matt Sidebottom ’11 and reflects our shared commitment to protecting athletes not just during their playing careers, but for life. Through education, research, and direct support services, we are working toward a future where sports are safer and no athlete faces these challenges alone.

The Sidey Fund was established in 2022 with a singular vision to ensure the dedication learned in sports translates to success in life.
We believe that financial barriers should never prevent a talented individual from pursuing higher education. Our board consists of former collegiate athletes, educators, and community leaders dedicated to transparency and impact.
