[WOLVES CLUB INFORMATION]

MONMOUTH, Ore. – The Western Oregon University of Department of Intercollegiate Athletics launched its new annual giving organization, the Western Oregon Wolves Club, on Monday. The primary function of the annual giving organization will be to provide scholarship assistance to WOU student-athletes.

“We are very excited to introduce the official fundraising arm of Western Oregon athletics,” said Athletics Director Daniel Hare. “It's my feeling WOU can be a leader in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference and can compete for national championships. The Wolves Club will help our student-athletes compete at the highest level and will help give them the support they need in order to become leaders in the classroom and the community.”

Donors can join the Wolves Club for as little as $60 annually with the opportunity to receive benefits and be recognized at six separate giving levels. Donors are also offered flexibility in how they pay. Individuals can pay in full at the time of their gift or can set up a monthly charge on their credit card.

In addition, anybody who joins the Wolves Club by June 30, 2011, will be considered a “Founding Member,” and will have their name engraved on a plaque which will be displayed at one of WOU's athletic facilities.

The goal of the program in its first year is to gain 250 members and raise over $50,000 in student-athlete support.
