What is LTAC?
Louisiana Tech Athletic Club is the athletic fundraising arm of the Division of University Advancement. Its mission is to raise funds to support over 300 student-athletes and their pursuit of academic and athletic excellence. Alumni, friends, former athletes, and fans can join LTAC and be a supporter of Louisiana Tech Athletics.
What is the difference between
LTAC and CHAMPS?
For various reasons, including a conflict in name with the NCAA-mandated CHAMPS/Life Skills Program, CHAMPS is being dissolved as the athletics fundraising arm. In response to the concerns of many alumni and friends, LTAC has been restructured to better serve the wishes of Tech’s supporters. All current CHAMPS members will automatically become LTAC members at the corresponding level. Please see the benefits chart for the changes in benefits.
Why should I donate to
LTAC and how will my donation be used?
The goal of LTAC is to provide Tech’s student-athletes the support necessary to receive a first-class education and to compete at the highest level of intercollegiate athletics. Monies donated to LTAC will be directed for:
1. Scholarships
In addition to tuition and books, fully-funded scholarships provide quality on-campus
housing and nutritional meals.
2. Facility Enhancements
Facilities are instrumental in providing the support for Tech’s student-athletes to
succeed in the classroom and in competition. Equally important, facilities are critical
assets (or liabilities) in recruiting quality talent.
3. Coaches Salary Supplements
Salary supplements make it possible for Tech to attract quality coaches by matching
market value.
4. Special Earmarks or Projects
Anyone wishing to donate to a specific sport or special project may do so and still
receive credit toward an LTAC membership.
Is my gift tax-deductible?
Your gift to LTAC is tax-deductible as allowed by the IRS. LTAC operates under the Louisiana Tech University Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) corporation. You will receive a receipt from the Foundation that shows the amount of your gift that is tax-deductible.
