Long Beach State Athletics welcomed Matt Schneider as the new Assistant Athletic Director for Development in 2025. In that role, Schneider will focus on driving annual giving efforts while working closely as a fundraising partner across all 19 programs at Long Beach State. He will also lead key campaigns such as Giving Day in December and Beach Spring Day of Giving, playing an integral role in building a strong philanthropic foundation for Long Beach State Athletics.
Â
Schneider comes to the Beach from Wartburg College, where he has spent the last two years working as the Director of Annual Giving for the full University, helping increase both donors and dollars by nearly 20% in the last year while pushing for almost 2,000 first time donors. In 2023-24, Schneider worked directly with athletics, nearly tripling the total donor base while setting a new high of total dollars raised in an athletic year.
That marked a return to Wartburg for the alum, who was active at the college as a student-athlete. A member of the cross country and track & field teams, Schneider served as the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee President during his senior year. Upon returning to Wartburg in a professional role, he also served as an assistant coach for the cross country and track & field programs in addition to his fundraising duties.
Prior to his return to Wartburg, he spent time with the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee, specifically with USA Judo where he was the Memberships & Events Coordinator, in addition to interning with the Falcon Athletic Fund at Air Force in Colorado Springs, Colo.
