About Donations
The LSU Equestrian Team is a Sport Club within the University Recreation Department. Sport Club Teams at LSU are financially independent organizations, and in order to be a competitive team LSU Equestrian has many financial obligations. To give you an idea, travel to an away IHSA competition can cost as much as $10,000 (charter bus rental, hotels, entry fees, etc.), and hosting a weekend of competitions coats about the same (facility rental, hiring required personnel, shipping horses, etc). During a regular competition season, not including the Zone and National Championship, LSU Equestrian travels to three competitions and hosts one. Despite active fundraising efforts throughout the year, much of this required financial burden falls on individual team members. Meeting these financial demands year after year speaks volumes about the dedication of LSU Equestrian team members, and with your help we can ensure that future college bound equestrians have the opportunity to be a part of the LSU Equestrian family.
Donations of all sizes and types are greatly appreciated, and those made to the LSU Equestrian foundation account are tax deductible. LSU Equestrian pledges that all monetary donations will be used exclusively for essential expenses such as are outlined above. If you have any questions about monetary donations, or are interested in donating material goods please contact us at [email protected].
