The Georgia Southern Athletic Foundation (GSAF) is excited to announce a strategic partnership with the Eagle Nation Collective (ENC) to streamline and enhance the giving process for Georgia Southern Athletics supporters. This collaboration simplifies contributions to the ENC, which plays a crucial role in supporting Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) opportunities for student-athletes.
By joining forces, Georgia Southern supporters can easily log into their GSAF ticket account to contribute directly to Eagle Nation Collective. Supporters can also continue to give online at EagleNationNIL.com. All contributions directly related to memberships will earn lifetime giving credit through the GSAF, with past and future membership investments to the ENC also being credited toward a donor's lifetime giving record.
"This partnership provides the Eagle Nation Collective access to first-class fundraising, events and stewardship services," said Georgia Southern Deputy Director of Athletics for Development, Allie Ware. "Georgia Southern student-athletes will benefit greatly from the Eagle Nation Collective's focus on enhanced NIL opportunities while achieving greater efficiency and fundraising success through resources made available by the Georgia Southern Athletic Foundation."
"Streamlining our approach for our fan base was essential in forming this new partnership," said Kennedy Finch, Executive Director of the Eagle Nation Collective."Now, our investors can benefit from having their contributions count toward lifetime giving with the GSAF, adding another incentive to support the Collective's mission of aiding all our student-athletes."
Additionally, contributors to the Eagle Nation Collective will have the opportunity to receive all corresponding membership benefits. However, contributions to the Eagle Nation Collective do not qualify as charitable donations, nor are they eligible for university naming opportunities.
This partnership not only simplifies the donation process but also ensures that ENC supporters receive the same high level of stewardship as GSAF donors, reinforcing Georgia Southern's commitment to excellence both on and off the field.
