The Marquette Challenge was launched by physical therapy students at Marquette University to support physical therapy research through the Foundation for Physical Therapy. Student organizations across the country compete in the annual challenge that has raised more than $2.7 million since its inception.

This year, UD’s Physical Therapy Club has set a goal of $6,200. If met, that would bring the organization’s total donation since the initiation of the campus challenge 14 years ago to $50,000.
