Marist's annual Day of Giving is coming up in three weeks. But you don't have to wait until Wednesday, March 25 to donate to our program! The Day of Giving donation links are live now. Why wait? Donate NOW!
Why donate to our team? Oh gosh. Let me count the WAYS:
1-Allows us to travel with a large squad to faraway meets -- Richmond, Colonial Relays, Bucknell -- and give us valuable visibility at these regional meets.
2-Allows us to bring elite-level athletes to national-caliber meets. This year, we are bringing a small group of athletes to Raleigh Relays at North Carolina State. You donation ensures that we can do that -- this year and in future years.
3-Allows us to fully outfit our team with gear and continue to provide equipment (pole vault poles, throwing event implements, etc.) as we rapidly expand to every event in track and field.
4-One long-term goal for our program is to purchase an alter-gravity treadmill -- the brand we are targeting is "Boost" treadmill. This is an EXPENSIVE piece of equipment -- in the tens of thousands of dollars. Some of our rival schools (you know, the one that finishes AHEAD of us every year!) make very good use of these devices, which allows injured athletes to continue to train at a very high level. Your Day of Giving donation -- this year and next year -- can go a long way to our program securing one of these vital pieces of equipment.
OK. That's my sales pitch for now. Here are the links to donate!
