How will your gift impact Hornet student-athletes?
The Hornet Club mission is to aid in the recruitment, retention, and development of nearly 500 student-athletes who compete in 21 varsity sports at Sacramento State. Our goal is to provide private financial support for athletic scholarships, facilities, student-athlete programming, team operations and other program needs for Sacramento State Athletics. Your support provides our student-athletes with the resources necessary for them to succeed on the field of play, in the classroom and out in the community. With your support and all of us working together, our success will continue for many years to come.
For example, by giving…
- $100 – New training shoes for our Track & Field Student-Athletes
- $500 – Allows our coaches to compete nationally for recruits during a semester
- $800 – Covers the cost for a Football player to travel to an away game
- $3,450 – Covers a semester of tuition for one student-athlete
Sacramento State Athletics
“Enhancing the student-athlete experience at Sacramento State is paramount," says Associate Athletics Director for External Affairs Markus Jennings. “No gift amount is insignificant and with your help, we can achieve greatness”. Together we can enhance the student-athlete experience and continue to promote Hornet Athletics pride in the Sacramento community.
The Hornet Club raises funds for the sole purpose of creating that premium student-athlete experience for all Hornets, by helping offset some of the Athletic Department's biggest expenses in tuition/scholarships, facility upgrades, branding and student-athlete programming.
WE NEED YOUR HELP! Your support is more crucial than ever, with the rise in tuition and cost of attendance, a single in-state athletic scholarship for the 2017-18 year will total over $19,000. Annual contributions to the Hornet Club Annual Fund aid in the effort to make up the difference. We hope you considering making an unrestricted gift today to the Hornet Club. You can make a difference!
