Your support to the Red Wolves Foundation is vital for the success of our sports programs at Arkansas State. Your donation, big or small, helps our student-athletes and sports programs stay competitive in the Sun Belt Conference and compete for championships consistently. Building and funding the Red Wolves Foundation is a community effort, and it will take all of us to take our athletics department to the next level.
WHAT IS THE RED WOLVES FOUNDATION?
The Red Wolves Foundation is philanthropic organization that provides private financial support for our student-athletes at Arkansas State University through scholarships, facilities, and other operational needs. We provide our student-athletes and sport programs with the necessary resources to ensure they reach their potential on and off the playing surface.
Additionally, the Red Wolves Foundation facilitates communication and service to all of its members to keep them informed, while stewarding them to show appreciation for their unwavering support to Arkansas State Athletics.
MEMBERSHIP LEVELS
Membership levels are based on yearly gifts to the annual fund, which can start at $100. Members receive benefits based on their annual giving, such as priority points for parking, away games, bowl games, and postseason.
AREAS OF GIVING
The Red Wolves Foundation has three areas of giving: annual giving, major giving, and booster clubs. Each giving allocation has its own benefits, such as insider information about sport programs and special event invitations.
The annual fund is the lifeblood of our sport programs and department-wide initiatives. Red Wolves Foundation members are able to receive benefits based on their annual giving within the academic/athletic year. This fund is used to provide support for our student-athletes outside of facility enhancements and scholarship needs. Examples include but are not limited to:
- Academic Services
- Recruiting
- Sports Medicine
- Strength & conditioning
- Mental Health Services
- Nutrition
- Travel
DID YOU KNOW?
As mandated by the state of Arkansas, athletics departments can only be allocated up to 2.0% of their institution’s overall educational and general budget. This law only applies to schools in Arkansas and, therefore, is not applicable to other schools in the Sun Belt Conference. This means that Arkansas State Athletics and the Red Wolves Foundation relies more heavily on private support from our donors to ensure we stay competitive in our conference and across the landscape of intercollegiate athletics.
