Don't Delay, Give Today!
My name is Lucas Thomas. I am from Aledo, Texas.  I did not understood just how much support the alumni provide until I began my campus job. I am one of the students who have been calling you. I have listened to your stories, and have learned that alumni contribute their time, their talents, are great recruiters for future Wildcats and, not least, provide treasure - those very important scholarship dollars that students like myself receive. 

You are teaching me why giving is important; how to do it, when to do it and why to do it. 

I just wanted to remind each of you that our June 30 deadline for the Student Scholarship Fund is quickly approaching and we still need your help.  Please consider donating online today or dropping a check in the mail postmarked by June 30.  Gifts of any size help us reach our goal!
