Bearcat Athletics Giving

Bearcat Athletics Annual Gifts

The Bearcat Athletic Fund is a critical component for our annual operating budget. These unrestricted funds, along with gifts designated to specific sports, are used to meet the needs of a successful Division III Athletics program, including team travel, equipment costs, facilities maintenance, and awards.  Your gift to Bearcat Athletics makes the difference in our program's ongoing success.

Endowment

Endowments may be established with a minimum gift of $50,000, and can be established for specific teams or programs as well as for general Athletics department use. Endowments may be named to honor an individual or the donor. Endowment gifts may be made payable over a maximum five year period.

Current endowments include:

  • Football
  • Rowing
  • Men's Basketball Legacy Fund

Types of Gifts


In addition to gifts of cash, check or credit card, Willamette welcomes gifts of real property, planned gifts, and gifts in-kind.  If you have interest in any of these types of support, please visit our University's support page, or contact Andrew Schmidt, Associate Director of Annual Giving for Athletics, at aschmidt@willamette.edu.
