SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV — The Shepherd University Foundation is pleased to announce the Band on the Run campaign in support of the Shepherd Ram Band during the 2019 DII football postseason campaign.
There is an estimated $6,000 in travel costs per regional match-up for the band, allowing its members to serve as ambassadors for Shepherd in front of alumni, friends, and other DII football fans. To double each gift’s impact, every dollar raised before the November 23 contest against Indiana University of Pennsylvania will be matched through the Shepherd Success Fund.
To make a gift, visit shepherduniversityfoundation.org/bandontherun/. Donors may also send in a check to the Shepherd University Foundation with “Band on the Run” in the memo line to P.O. Box 5000, Shepherdstown, WV 25443.
For more information or for assistance in making a gift, contact Katie Gordon, alumni and annual giving coordinator, at 304-876-5524 or kswayne@shepherd.edu.
