When you donate to the BASF, your investment is supported by a team of coaches, counselors, mentors, tutors, and an entire support system designed to enable the student-athlete to be successful and maximize their potential in all aspects of their lives.

Beaver Athletics made us all proud during the 2008-09 academic year:

• 12 teams participated in postseason play
• Seven players selected in the 2009 NFL Draft (Five players graduating prior to draft day)
• 51% of student-athletes have a 3.00-plus GPA
• 4,200-plus hours of community service commitments

In addition to your contribution, we need your help in another area. Recently, we began a membership drive initiative to increase our donor base to "12,000 by 2012". By achieving this goal, we will have doubled our donor base and become the largest group of invested supporters in the Pac-10 Conference. If you know a Beaver fan that is not a member of the BASF, please encourage them to join. By joining for as little as $10 a month, they can help us continue to provide opportunities for our student-athletes to compete at the highest level of intercollegiate athletics and help them become leaders in industry, education, government, and philanthropy.

Thank you for your continued generous support and passion for Oregon State Athletics.

Sincerely,

Bob De Carolis
Director of Athletics
