Donors trust in athletic department to handle their money donations

It’s been less than 100 days since Kevin Saal became the Director of Athletics. Saal has announced numerous partnerships, opportunities for NIL advancement opportunities and updates to campus athletic facilities.

Saal has continued his innovation through his mission statement called ‘The Shocker Way.’ Saal announced the creation of the ‘Shocker Way Fund’ on Sept. 19.

So far, Saal said more than $180,000 in gifts and pledges are committed to the Shocker Way Fund.

Saal said donors originally showed an interest in giving money to the athletic department because of the message behind the ‘Shocker Way’ vision.
