Donation Distribution

Student-Athletes are the reason why Bulldog Foundation Members are “The Team Behind the Teams”!!

• YOUR donation helps prepare our student-athletes for future community leadership opportunities.
• YOUR donation supports all student-athlete scholarship needs for 17 Division-I sports.
• YOUR donation helps keep pace with increased costs of room, board, books and state fees. This total is estimated to increase $500,000-plus in 2007-08.
• YOUR donation resulted in impressive academic performances in the 2006 fall semester by 478 student-athletes, including 252 (53 percent) with a 3.0 or higher GPA.

The mission of The Bulldog Foundation Scholarship Fund is to promote education through student-athlete scholarships. BDF members once again met that mission in 2006-07, as they have for 56 years as the annual fund and endowment distribution provided 100 percent of scholarship funding.
