The Mountaineer Athletic Club (MAC) is the fundraising arm of West Virginia University’s Department of Intercollegiate Athletics and operates in partnership with the WVU Foundation. The WVU Department of Intercollegiate Athletics pays 100% of the scholarships awarded to more than 350 student-athletes in 17 varsity sports from monies raised by the MAC. MAC fundraising efforts also support capital projects required to build and maintain first-class athletic facilities. In addition, monies raised by the MAC are used to support a variety of programs which enhance the overall experience of WVU student-athletes. Your individual and corporate contributions help Advance Scholarship and Build Champions.

[ VALUE PROPOSITION ]

PLEASE NOTE:

Should you choose to pool

your giving with other WVU alumni/friends,

please be aware that the MAC can only recognize one individual from

the group as the contact person

and only the contact person will receive the benefits listed.

Joining the MAC does not obligate

you to purchase priority location

season tickets for WVU football and/

or men’s basketball, although we hope

donors will choose to exercise this option.

I am interested in receiving more information on the following Special Projects:

[ WHY WE NEED YOUR HELP ]

As a self-supporting auxiliary to the

University, the WVU Department of

Intercollegiate Athletics receives no

state funds or financial support from the

University. With more than 350 student-

athletes in 17 varsity sports receiving

financial aid each year this creates a

significant need for private support. WVU Intercollegiate

Athletics pays 100% of the scholarship bill from the University

for its student-athletes, primarily with monies received from

MAC members who understand the need and costs of maintaining

a premier college athletic program. MAC fundraising efforts

also support critical capital projects and other special

programs undertaken by the athletic department.

to making a contribution, 80% of your contribution is tax deductible. For

100% tax deductibility of your annual contribution, you must decline

benefits are 100% deductible. Mountaineer Athletic Club donors will

receive a receipt for tax purposes from the WVU Foundation upon
