Stadium Campaign Over $7.3 Million
T
he Stadium Campaign has surpassed $7.3 million as of April 1st when this magazine went to print. The ENMU alumni/donors, citizens of Portales/Roosevelt County and students are all getting behind this multi-purpose facility that will transform Portales and ENMU. The campaign goal is $12 million and Stephen Doerr, the ENMU Foundation Board President/Campaign Chair can see this being achieved in the near future. “I’m thankful for everyone who has championed this campaign in the early stages,” acknowledges Mr. Doerr. “It will take all of us getting behind this campaign with our own contributions to reach our goal. As alumni and friends of ENMU, you need to take ownership in this exciting project.” We are proud to announce several lead contributions that have made this $7.3 million possible.

Watch for exciting announcements in the near future regarding additional contributions and donor commitments. Donors have already locked in their pledges for naming rights of the team entrance to the field, home side ticket booth, flagpoles and much more. Have you considered participating in the campaign and sponsoring one of the naming opportunities listed on the opposite page? There are opportunities available, and we will be more than happy to discuss these with you. You can even make a pledge that will be fulfilled over several years (maximum of five).
For example, a pledge of $5,000 could be paid over five years at $1,000 each year. That is less than $85 per month. Or a $10,000 pledge over five years is $2,000 a year or less than $170 per month. This is the first campaign where we are raising private funds to build a new addition to the Portales Campus. This is the ONLY addition that allows donors the opportunity to have their names as a permanent part of the new state of the art facility. Join in and make it happen. Call the ENMU Foundation office at 888.291.5524 to learn more.
