Beyond the personal pleasure of giving, your gift also may bring tax advantages. You may be able to deduct from your income tax return the amount of your contribution that exceeds the value of courtesies we extend to you as a member. Of course, you should consult your personal tax adviser to determine your specific advantages. To thank members for their support of the athletic program, the Western Athletic Club extends certain courtesies at each level of giving. As a visible segment within the university community, WIU intercollegiate athletic programs benefit the entire university.
Western athletes exemplify the commitment to quality in both academics and athletics.
These outstanding men and women who represent Western athletics each year are also gaining a distinguished education while continuing a tradition. We hope you will help keep the long tradition of excellence alive. NOW Western Illinois University is committed to providing the premier undergraduate education among all public institutions in Illinois, and in selected discipline,s, far beyond Illinois' borders. Our institution's goal of attaining premier status applies to all areas of university life, including our athletics program. Recognizing that state resources in support of our mission are limited, securing private contributions is the key to meeting this commitment.
