Contributions from donors help offset the athletic student's financial needs by assisting with books, tuition and housing. The most important element to a successful athletics program is scholarship funding. Our goal is to increase annual giving through the Mastodon Athletic Scholarship Fund (MASF). Currently, the MASF provides support to 219 Mastodon student athletes.
To speak with someone regarding donating to Athletics or the Mastodon Athletic Scholarship Fund contact:
Richard Miller, Director of Athletic Development at 260-481-6894 or millerr@ipfw.edu.
