HAMMER DOWN! HAIL PURDUE! While we acknowledge that further progress needs to be made by some of our sports, that advancement cannot take place without the continued support of our John Purdue Club members. Your financial commitment provides scholarships for our 500+ student-athletes. These athletic scholarships provide a life-changing experience that extends far beyond athletics, empowering us to develop "Champions, Scholars and Citizens." This year marks our second year with an April 30 renewal deadline for all John Purdue Club members. We have received a tremendous amount of positive feedback with the new simplified renewal process. Members now can give whenever they want prior to the April 30 deadline. We thank those members who have already given their gift for the 2015-16 membership year, many taking advantage of tax benefits with year-end gifts. We are excited to announce a new, "easy-to-use" online-giving website at JohnPurdueClub.com. Simply click "Donate" at the top of our new site and make your gift. As always, you are welcome to call the John Purdue Club office at 765.494.3248 to make a gift by phone or use the renewal materials you have received to mail in your annual donation. If you have not already done so, feel free to make your gift any time prior to April 30. For those waiting until the deadline, we encourage you to take advantage of our second-annual "Purdue Day of Giving" on April 29 and make your gift to support Purdue Athletics online at PurdueDayOfGiving.com and help us earn bonus matching dollars. Last year you helped us finish first in the "total donors" competition! Thanks to all John Purdue Club members for your tremendous commitment! You are the most loyal of all Purdue fans.
