I made a modest donation but let’s keep it going…
Also wanted to support buy getting some blenders but looks like their promotion ended or was tied to a limited edition… if anyone has any info I’d appreciate it!

I also signed up for a modest amount . Always thankful for those big donors butin many ways it is even more cool when a really large number of small donors participate , support the team. If everone could even do the $ 20 a month level it would really add up fast.

It kinda bothers me to donate on this site. I see nothing about this on the Mesa site. Too many scams out there. Can someone arrange to have this directly from Mess site? Once it is there, I will donate. I agree. Why is it being done through this site most people have never heard of? Just run it through the Mesa Foundation website. Just advertise the match and have a running total of donations since a specific date. It does look a little shady to the casual observer. Also agree, already have a Mesa account and prefer to donate there instead of some "generic" fund me site. Not saying that the matching attempt is a scam, but I'm always suspicious and it seems it would be real easy for the Mesa foundation to insert a link in their page to assure donors |

It was a very smart/well-publicized promotion, hopefully MESA, et al. continues future deals like it. |

It came back as corrupted. Does anyone have a good link we can all forward to alums out of town or who don't visit Aztec Mesa? Thanks! It would be more impactful if it shows the $300k matching. |

$300,000, or 60% of an Oumar Ballo. So like...Mar Ball.

I keep putting more in to keep the momentum going. Something like this should be on the news though. There just isnt enough attention.

It's an alternative to GoFundMe. If you don't use the link then I don't think the match happens. It's legit. |

Everybody and anybody on this board that has complained, bitched or lamented about the unfortunate state of affairs regarding NIL imbalance or the frustrating history last year of missing out on two different bigs because of NIL HAS to donate something. dm-anon 50
It takes less than 5 minutes. There's no amount too small. You don't have to join a club or do it every month or sell your first-born either. Suck it up, put on your big-boy pants and click the link. Let's see how much we can raise just this weekend. We're sitting at $2950($5900 with match) since this Thread posted.
Thanks to the good fans who donated and did something about the problem rather than just talking about it!
It's now Monday afternoon and you maybe have reflected on how much pure, unadulterated joy the Aztec BB program has given you and it should be easier to talk yourself into a simple click that will make you feel even more connected to "The Program" than you did before.
"No Ceiling Sir!"
Thanks to everyone so far

It's now Tuesday morning and when you watched the UConn-Purdue game last night you remembered what it felt like watching our Aztecs play for the freakin' National Championship!!!! Didn't that feel AMAZING?! So talk yourself into a simple click that will make you feel even more connected to "The Program" than you did before. Even if it's just $10.
"No Ceiling Sir!"
Thanks to everyone so far for donating.

Only 100 donors to this campaign so far?
I know a lot of people here have donated, but we've got to do a lot better than that.
I shared the link on my Facebook page....

Try this one. It has a letter from Coach Dutcher talking about the importance of NIL with the match: www.spotfund.com/story/84975a3e-932e-45b7-af47-e2b51194c396?SFID=MESAMatch |
