Bates Field Hockey Endowment
Invest in Excellence: The Bates Field Hockey Endowment Matching Gift Opportunity
The remarkable achievements of our field hockey team serve as a source of immense pride for the entire Bates community. This success is a testament to the dedication of our athletes, coaches, and the unwavering support of our alumni and friends.
To build upon this momentum and secure a future of sustained excellence, we are launching the Bates Field Hockey Endowment. This endowment will provide a vital, predictable source of funding, enhancing the team’s operational budget and supporting crucial needs such as travel, equipment, and training. By supplementing the generous annual support of the Friends of Bates Athletics (FBA), this endowment will elevate our program to new heights.
We are thrilled to announce that an exceptionally generous supporter has stepped forward with a $75,000 matching gift to catalyze this initiative. Every dollar you contribute to the Field Hockey Endowment will be matched, dollar-for-dollar, up to $75,000. This is a unique opportunity to double the impact of your generosity and leave a lasting legacy for Bates Field Hockey.
Your investment in the Field Hockey Endowment will:
- Ensure Long-Term Stability: Provide a reliable financial foundation for the program, year after year.
- Enhance Operational Excellence: Support essential expenses, including travel, equipment, and training resources.
- Empower Student-Athletes: Enable our athletes to achieve their full potential, both on and off the field.
- Build a Legacy: Create a lasting impact that will benefit generations of Bates field hockey players.
We invite you to join us in this pivotal moment. Your contribution will play a crucial role in shaping the future of Bates Field Hockey.
