Q. Why should I become a member of the Falcon Club?
A Falcon Club membership is an investment in the exceptional experience provided by Pfeiffer Athletics. Your support makes special project funding available for facility improvements, state-of-the-art equipment, and technology upgrades. Your membership donation can also support and enhance team needs that directly impact the University’s quest for excellence in athletic competition.
Additionally, Falcon Club members can receive access to special benefits, such as Falcon Club Swag, game day hospitality, and complimentary admission to special events.
Q. Is there a minimum annual membership level?
The “Freddie” – at $100 – is the minimum level for annual Falcon Club membership. See all levels of membership in the above section. You may join at any level with a one-time gift or a pledge that can be conveniently paid over a term of up to 12 months. For instance, a monthly pledge payment of just $10, for one year, totals slightly more than the minimum for Falcon Club membership.
Q. Can I support a specific team with my Falcon Club membership?
Yes! You may join the Falcon Club with an unrestricted gift to the Falcon Athletic Fund, which supports the university-wide Pfeiffer Athletics program, or you may join the Falcon Club with a membership donation that is designated for supporting the team(s) of your choice. Either way, you become a Falcon Club member!
Q. What are my benefits of membership?
Besides knowing that you are making a significant impact on the experience of Pfeiffer’s student-athletes, there are a variety of benefits to Falcon Club membership. All members receive the Falcon Club newsletter, emailed once a month during the school year. “The Village” membership also receives recognition in select game day programs. Higher membership level benefits include Falcon Club Swag, VIP seating and game day hospitality at Pfeiffer home basketball games, an engraved brick on the athletic sidewalk, Hall of Fame Induction tickets, and entry into the annual spring Keith Crisco Golf Tournament. See all levels of membership and their corresponding benefits in the above section.
Q. I am not interested in membership but wish to support Pfeiffer Athletics. Can I give less than $100?
Yes! Every gift, no matter the size, helps us do more for our student-athletes. You may donate the online minimum of $10 or any amount more than that. Consider setting up a recurring gift so that you can give a monthly amount that is comfortable for you. A recurring gift of just $25 a month will grow to $300 over a year!
