JMU EMPLOYEE ATHLETICS PAYROLL DEDUCTION

JMU Employees have the opportunity to support athletics by making gifts through payroll deduction. This allows staff members to have contributions automatically withdraw from their pay check and ease the donating process. Employees can also purchase football, men's basketball and women's basketball season tickets through payroll deduction.

What is the Proud and True Fund?

The "Proud and True" Fund supports JMU student-athlete scholarships and general operating budget while providing the donor game day experience benefits related to hospitality and parking. All gifts to this fund are 100% tax deductible. Your gift gives a first-class education and premier athletic experience to young men and women during their time at James Madison University. Learn more about the Duke Club and Proud & True Fund.
