NIU Cross Country Enhancement Fund

The NIU Cross Country Enhancement Fund is your opportunity to support the NIU Cross Country Program. Annual contributions provide additional operational funding for the Cross Country Program and support projects that enhance the overall student-athlete experience, including:

• Improve cross-country/distance athletes’ ability to travel during fall and spring competition seasons.
  • Provide high performance opportunities at elite level competitions across the country.
• Enhance our recovery, nutrition, and training modalities
  • Air Relax System, Alter-G Treadmill Maintenance, Athlete Massage, SOS Hydration, Cross-Training Equipment, Glanbia Protein Supplements, Rollers, and Bands
• Update team adidas apparel to accommodate programmatic needs for all training and competition conditions.

Contributions to the Cross Country Enhancement Fund are tax deductible as allowed by federal tax laws. Donors should consult with their tax advisor concerning all deductions resulting from charitable benefits. Restricted gifts to the Cross Country Enhancement Fund currently count toward membership credit to the Huskie Athletic Fund. Up to 10% of your gift(s) will be allocated for operational needs of the Athletics Department and University.
