Quick, how many of you on this board know that you can become a monthly sustainer for St. John’s athletics? How many of know that if you become a sustainer you can decide when, how much, and where your contributions will go to? Many folks used to think that the only way you can support St. John’s athletics was by donating a lot of money to join the Red White Club or by purchasing season tickets. Many of you on here do both which is great but for those that don’t because you mistakenly believe that only certain high level donations are accepted to support St. John’s athletics, or for those that live too far away to attend games or get season tickets, you can make a difference, and you can choose how much and to where.
Anyone can simply contact the Office of Athletic Development at 718-990-2547 and tell them you’d like to make a monthly contribution. You can make a monthly contribution to a credit card of yours in ANY AMOUNT of your choosing. It can be just $5 a month, or $10, or even just $1. Think that doesn’t matter, think again. In recent conversations that I’ve had with folks at St. John’s Athletics the one thing that is abundantly clear is that no amount is too small or insignificant. Just think about this, you give $5 every month means you end up giving $60 after a year. Now just imagine if just five people from this board decide to give just $5 every month. Contrary to what some believe, you don’t need to give a minimum of dollar amount to contribute to St. John’s Athletics.
I know I know, there are some on here who will say I already give enough to the school, or I give enough with my season tickets, or when the team starts winning again then maybe I’ll consider it. I get all of that. I don’t work for the university, like many of you here I am just a proud alum who is also a big fan of our St. John’s athletics programs. If you want to give and are able to give you should think about doing this. Any contribution will go a long way in supporting New York’s Team.
A few additional FYIs:
You can designate where your contribution goes to (men’s basketball only or general athletics)
You can even split your contribution ($5 for men’s basketball and $5 for women’s soccer).
Your contribution is fully tax deductible.
You can change your monthly amount (increase or decrease) whenever you want.
If you want to cancel your contributions you can end it at anytime.
