Alumni Loyalty Fund offers new benefits for the 2024-2025 year

There’s much excitement surrounding the upcoming events and initiatives for the Alumni Association this year, including the Alumni Loyalty Fund. The Loyalty Fund’s membership structure, which runs from July 1 to June 30 for the 2024-2025 year, offers membership levels that allow alumni and friends the option to choose the benefits they want to receive.

The Alumni Loyalty Fund supports many areas, including alumni programming, student programming and community engagement outreach. Making a gift to the Loyalty Fund is always the best way to show your support for the Alumni Association. It’s now easier than ever before to become a Loyalty Fund member and access exclusive benefits.

There are four membership levels for alumni and supporters to choose from when making a Loyalty Fund gift: traditional, collegiate, affiliate and corporate memberships. Traditional membership is for alumni who want to give 100% of their gift to the Loyalty Fund. If you’re a friend of the University but still want to support the Alumni Association, then the affiliate membership is the right option for you. The collegiate membership option is the perfect fit for those who want to support the Alumni Association but also give to an academic college. And finally, if you have a business that would like to show its support, corporate memberships are available.

Each membership offers different benefit levels that you can choose from depending on your gift amount. This year, some benefits include entrance into home football game tailgates hosted by the Alumni Association, special event invitations and branded items for your home. The Alumni Association is also excited to offer a limited-edition George Rodrigue Blue Dog “Cajun Man” lapel pin as one of its benefits this year.

There’s also flexibility when making your gift to the Loyalty Fund as well. For example, if you don’t want to receive complimentary entrance into home football game tailgates, you can choose to receive a branded bamboo coaster set instead. You can also make a one-time yearly gift or choose a recurring monthly payment option, depending on what works best for you.

Regardless of which membership or benefit level you choose, your gift to the Alumni Loyalty Fund will ensure that the Alumni Association can continue to make a meaningful impact on our University and community.
