The annual giving campaign is this week
EVANSVILLE, Ind. – This week marks Pep & Vim at the University of Evansville, which is the annual giving campaign on campus. Set for his first Pep & Vim as the Director of Athletics at UE, Dr. Kenneth “Ziggy†Siegfried has announced a pledge from the newly-formed AD’s Council.
Since his arrival on campus, Siegfried has put together an advisory council that includes alumni, supporters and influential community members. This council acts in an advisory role to Siegfried in all facets of the Purple Aces Athletics Department.
In conjunction with Pep & Vim, the AD’s Council has announced a $5,000 matching gift to the Purple Aces Club if the department can generate 100 gifts through April 14, which is the annual day of giving. All gifts that are received this week count towards the matching gift total. Donations can be made in amounts as low as $15 and can be made by clicking here or on the Pep & Vim link above.
The Purple Aces Club is the primary focus for donations this year as they impact all sports within the UE athletics department and contribute to the student-athlete experience.
Pep & Vim features a variety of events from Friday, April 14 through Sunday, April 16. It coincides with Reunion Weekend, which welcomes alumni back to campus.
Special thanks go to the AD’s Council for the generosity. Members of the council are listed below:
