This grant comes from our previously established multi-year Grant program, and no general donor dollars were used. Our grants committee reviewed and selected the Athletics department's application from a pool of qualified applications. The grant will be used to support the sports teams and other areas of the athletic program through the purchase of a rolling cart used to transport water across fields and campus.
