Contribution & Benefits

All Bearcat Club donors receive 1) Tax Deduction; 2) E-mail Newsletter; and 3) Cardinal & Gold magazine. Additional benefits are available for higher giving levels. Benefits cover June 1- May 31 fiscal year. Note: Under current tax law, when benefits are available as a result of a contribution, the fair market value of those benefits must be subtracted from the contribution in order to determine the tax deductible portion of a gift. Donors may elect to decline all benefits and the gift will be 100% tax deductible.

Nominal recognition of appreciation is extended to all donors. Recognition may be in the form of receptions or other hospitality opportunities at athletics events, and may also include gifts of nominal value (i.e., window sticker, t-shirt). Keeping recognition gifts to a minimum allows your gift to be 100% tax deductible.
