Memphis Tigers have meant everything to my husband and to so many other athletes....An opportunity for a college education; a deep connection to a college community and the incredible city of Memphis; and a blast rooting for the next generation of teams...

 

Brian has volunteered as M Club president these past three years as a way to give back and stay engaged; and for his birthday I'm doing a fundraiser to support his work.

 

In partnership with U of M athletic department, M Club is raising funds to refurbish an outdated weight room used by all athletes on campus (except men's basketball and football which are better resourced).

 

Why does this matter? Who cares about a weight room?  Well, it's  about measuring up.  To compete for the best athletes, U of M has to have facilities on a par with other colleges, and thanks to this project, we'll be able to offer that.  Plus, great facilities help make our young athletes feel valued and supported - and that's everything.

We hope you'll help us raise $10,000 to support this important project which can make a meaningful difference in the competitiveness of U of M's athletic programs and our athletes' experience. 

Any size gift is appreciated - $100 to $1000 - but $1000 will get your name on the Olympic Weight Room Donor Wall :-)   Join me there if you can spare it!
