Pillars of Impact
When giving to Beaver Athletics, every dollar makes an impact. The BSU Alumni & Foundation and BSU Athletics have introduced our “Pillars of Impact” annual giving levels. The “Pillars of Impact” initiative is a unique way that will incentivize, acknowledge, and recognize our supporters of BSU Athletics. The more a donor gives throughout the year, the higher they will climb in level, and the more incentive and recognition they will receive.
Once a donor has reached Impact Level 1, they will find their name on an Impact Pillar in the Physical Education Complex -- in the new donor recognition area outside of the Beaver Pride Room. Three Impact Pillars will lead right to our highest level, the “Wall of Legends,” where donors will be able to see their name on the Wall of Legends for the entirety of the year.
To incentivize supporters to give multiple times throughout the fiscal year, annual giving levels will include any donation made to BSU Athletics, Beaver Pride, hockey ticket premiums or designated sport of choosing throughout the course of the year. Participation in an event and base-price hockey tickets do not count toward annual giving levels.
Annual donations are counted during BSU’s fiscal year – July 1 to June 30. Pillars of Impact and Wall of Legends will be updated at the completion of each fiscal year to reflect the previous year’s donors.
