2 Become a Bobcat Club Donor The Bobcat Club is comprised of donors who are alumni, fans, former student-athletes, coaches and friends who enjoy the many advantages of supporting athletic scholarships including the best seats in the house for Bobcat athletic events while helping provide student-athletes with a firstclass education and a chance to excel in the classroom as well as on the playing field. Why help fund athletic scholarships? In this day and age, with the rising costs of higher education, supporting student-athlete scholarships makes sense. Our athletes are students first, and helping support a scholarship mission allows these student-athletes to achieve the goal they set out for when they chose to come to Texas State: to receive a degree from this great university! Bobcat Club and The Drive: The move to the FBS level will require an additional 22 scholarships for football. This is where supporting the Bobcat Club is important, as more scholarship dollars must be raised to put our department in the position to make the move to FBS. Also, it will be critical to present a new FBS conference a strong annual scholarship fund comprised of thousands of donors across the state. Donate to the Bobcat Club today and make a difference!

4 Other Methods of Giving Champions Club Level Looking for a unique way to enjoy Bobcat football? Join us on the Champions Club Level, where you can choose to watch the game from the comfort of our club lounge or in your covered, reserved chair-back seat outside. Choose from two levels of Club Seats: platinum (between the 35-yard lines) and gold (outside the 35-yard lines). With either level you ll have an engraved nameplate on your seat that will mark your contribution to Bobcat football history and show your support of The Drive to the Football Bowl Subdivision. Planned Gifts Planned gifts may be created through wills, bequests, gift annuities or life insurance policies, charitable trusts, or other life income arrangements. This permanent source of income allows our athletic programs to be less dependent on annual dollars from other sources and to weather the storm during poor economic times. Endowments An endowment is a transfer of money or property donated to Texas State, usually with the stipulation that it is to be invested and the principal remain intact. This provides an annual spendable income that becomes a permanent resource in future years for future student-athletes. For more information on these methods of giving, please contact Travis Comer, Associate Athletics Director, at
