To help us maintain this level of excellence and support our student-athletes, the Shepherd University Athletic Club is proud to sponsor the fifth annual Thankful to Be a Ram Campaign. We are asking Ram Nation to consider making a gift to support the sport of your choice and then to share the fundraising link with your social networks through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and e-mail. Be sure to use #RAMthankful when using social media!
All gifts will have an immediate impact on our teams and our student-athletes. Gifts received through this campaign are used to: purchase new equipment; provide facility enhancement opportunities; team travel needs and much more. The three programs that raise the highest percentage over their pre-set goal will receive an additional prize from the SUAC!

If you prefer to make a gift through the mail, we have included the address below and we will be happy to link your gift to your designated program's overall donor goal. However, if you wish to remain anonymous, just let us know.
