Our Mission, Purpose and Goals

The Bearcat Club serves as a support organization for Willamette University’s 20 NCAA Division III varsity programs. Any gift to any Athletics fund qualifies as a Bearcat Club donation. Gifts to the Bearcat Club provide annual support to supplement team operating budgets. The Bearcat Club strives to provide additional resources for Willamette Athletics programs to ensure all student-athletes receive quality athletic experiences.

Can I Support A Specific Program?

Yes! While we urge unrestricted gifts, restricted gifts directly benefit the designated team or program. Any amount can be designated and restricted to a specific team(s).

Where Does the Money Go?

All gifts to Athletics are used to support our teams and programs. A portion of unrestricted funds are used to pay for expenses associated with the Bearcat Club (i.e., printing, mailing costs, donor benefits).

Business Opportunities

Your business can support Bearcat Athletics, and enjoy tickets to football and basketball games, for as little as $250 through our Bearcat Club Business memberships. If you want more marketing exposure for your business, we can tailor a custom sponsorship program to meet your needs and budget.

Opportunities include print, internet and facilities exposure in additional to other special marketing vehicles.
