This article will run in the Times Union next week. UAlbany is preparing for the final fund raising push. There was a lot of talk about a buy a brick campaign and they listened. Here is your opportunity to contribute without needing to be a millionaire. I understand you can even stretch the pledge over four years to lessen the blow. No matter how you do it, just make a contribution.

 

I encourage everyone to make the investment. Your on Big Purple Fans for a reason, you support UA.

Correct.

 

The plaque will be near the entrance so it should be prominent. You can ask Mary for details. Office number: (518) 956-7952

 

It'll be great to show my kid. Invest in your passion... that's UA sports for me with football as #1

Yeah I have my form already from the guy I work with at the UA Fund who I do my donations through. On that form it said plaque which is why I was just double checking that it wasn't bricks. I think the multi-year plan to donate is a great option.

Here is the landing page to donate:

www.albany.edu/stadium

 

The online form doesn't let you donate over 4yrs, but the paper form I have in hand does make that statement. If you contact anyone at the UA Fund they should be able to get you the paper form I'd think.

 

The ad will run on Sunday in the TU I believe.

 

EDIT: Someone must have tried to donate because now they changed the page saying they aren't taking donations right now. Haha, you'd think if someone is willing to donate they'd take the $ and run with it. Who cares if it's a few days before the announcement is official.

Right now the landing page says it's not currently accepting donations. But the picture shows a different perspective of the fieldstadium-788px.jpg

 

They updated the site already.

Back to the way it was this morning.

Someone on BPF asked me today for the mulit-year payment plan form I have. They don't seem to have PDFs of it as it's due by Friday. But if you contact..

Donor e-mails have gone out:

 

With your help, we've raised over $2.4 million in support of the stadium! Thank you for being a part of UAlbany history. Your generous support helped us score the winning touchdown in the final days of our stadium fundraising campaign.

 

The new stadium will be the perfect venue for students, alumni, friends, and fans to cheer on our Great Danes—and to pay tribute to the outstanding achievements of legendary coach Bob Ford, who announced his retirement earlier this week.

Times Union Article: Coach Bob Ford leaves a legacy and his name

 

I hope to see you at Homecoming on October 19 as we unveil the Stadium Donor Wall of Fame, celebrate our talented student-athletes and the many acomplishments of UAlbany's football program under Coach Ford's 43 years of leadership.
