In recognition of a generous gift commitment from Heritage Federal Credit Union (Heritage) to the University of Southern Indiana Foundation, the Varsity Club Suite in the Screaming Eagles Arena has been named the Heritage Varsity Club Suite.
The new name was unveiled during a brief ceremony on July 20, with representatives from the USI Foundation and Heritage, including CEO Tony Aylsworth, a USI alumnus from the Class of 1987.
Funds from the commitment will be used to support student-athletes and USI Athletics.
“We are grateful for Heritage’s investment in our students and athletic programs,†said Jon Mark Hall, Associate Vice President and Director of Athletics. “This gift will continue to elevate our University community through our athletic pursuits.
Heritage is a longtime supporter of the University on a broad range of initiatives including support of the American Marketing Association Chapter, Varsity Club Golf Scramble, Heritage Artisan Days in New Harmony, Indiana, and the USI Medical Professionals Alumni Celebration.
“We are thrilled to partner with USI to empower student-athletes and promote academic excellence,†says Sami Etienne, Heritage Director of Marketing. “At Heritage, we are driven by a clear mission to improve lives and simplify banking. This partnership allows us to extend our support to a new generation and represents our dedication to ensuring a bright future for the next generation of leaders.â€
