Would you like a WWU Track & Field t-shirt? Would you like to see your favorite Viking T&F athlete in $150 worth of Nike WWU T&F Team gear? Would you like to see the Western Pole Vault team with the equipment necessary to take them to the next level? This can all happen with the help of supporters like you when you make a $59 or great donation to the WWU T&F – Pole Vault Viking Funder!
As we approach this season and all it has to offer for our current student-athletes we want you our closest family, friends, and alumni to be just as much a part of it as we are!
As a coaching staff we are committed to providing your sons, daughters, heroes and legacies with opportunities to train, compete and grow both as athletes and individuals on and off the track. We are also committed to giving the best experience possible to these young men and women but we need your help to do that.
We are trying something new this year. In years past, each dollar you have given has been spread out amongst our 120+ student-athlete roster. This has allowed us to finance some of our biggest opportunities as a program, but makes it difficult for people to see a direct impact on the student-athletes or event groups they are most connected with. This year, we are splitting all of our event groups up so that your dollar goes to directly impact the person or event group you care most about! Here is how it works:
Each event group has needs. Equipment, travel, gear and even finding funds to pay our stipend coaches. But, why should our Pole Vaulters raise funds for a new steeple chase barrier? So, we have taken each event group and looked deeper into what tools they need to thrive and what will most enhance their experience.
For our Pole Vaulters, we will be raising funds for
In short, we are looking to raise about $585 per Pole Vaulter and $7,020 for the entire Pole Vault group!
In order to accomplish this goal we have asked each athlete to find 10 people to give $59. Can you do that? In return, we would like to send you a t-shirt*. If you would like a team t-shirt please give us your t-shirt size on the donation page. And if you wish to give more than the $59 minimum in order to have a greater impact on our Sprint team we/they would be incredibly grateful. Please feel free to write in a larger amount. Team members who reach their goal will earn a $150 apparel package of Nike WWU T&F Gear, so your $59 contribution can get your favorite Pole Vaulter looking good and representing our program in style!
