Gifts may be restricted to a specific sport, or made to the
General Athletic Fund. A restricted donation means that 80% will go
directly to the designated sport, and the remaining 20% of the gift
will funnel into the General Athletic Fund.
A donor may choose to designate more than one sport for his/her
donation. Restricted donations are the best way for donors to
ensure support for their chosen sport or sports.
The Board uses General Athletic fund donations to address common
needs. All gifts are tax deductible. In addition, gifts to the
Sho'men Club count towards all other gifts and Gift Clubs at the
College.
