Greetings from Wisconsin Athletics!
Thank you for all you do in support of Wisconsin Athletics and our student-athletes. Your generosity and dedication to the growth of our young men and women in the classroom, in the community and on the fields of play is essential to their success and is greatly appreciated.
I’m very proud of what has been accomplished by our student-athletes and staff. Back-to-back Final Four appearances. Back-to-back bowl game victories. Numerous other team and individual championships. Hundreds of Academic All-Big Ten selections. Thousands of hours of community service. All in the past couple years. We’re on the right track and we want to stay there, but it will require a collective effort and commitment by all of us - student-athletes, coaches, staff, donors and season-ticket holders.
We have had a marvelous run of success over the past quarter century at Wisconsin and we will tackle the challenges and embrace any change that lies ahead in college athletics. I hope, as you read through this donor guide, that you will consider making a gift that will help our student-athletes continue to win academically, athletically and socially.
Managing a self-sustaining, 23-sport program (with more than 800 student-athletes) is a team effort. Please know that the contributions you make are critical to our success and, as I mentioned earlier, much appreciated, particularly by the student-athletes who benefit most from them.
If you have any questions, please contact the Wisconsin Athletic Development Office at 608.262.1000 or [email protected]. You can also find more information at SupportTheBadgers.org. Thank you again for your consideration and generosity.
On, Wisconsin!
