Southern Boosters Announces Fund Raising Highs

STATESBORO, Ga. – At the previous Southern Boosters Board of Directors Meeting, the staff presented the Board of Directors with final fund raising numbers for the 2007-08 fiscal year and 2008 Annual Campaign. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the organization exceeded the $2.3 million raised mark.

Meanwhile this year’s annual campaign raised $953,198 from 2,110 donors from across the country.  These figures represent organizational highs for total dollars raised, annual campaign fund raising and Southern Boosters membership. 

“We are very excited to announce these organizational highs for Southern Boosters and what they mean about the fans’ support for our student-athletes pursuit of ‘Rings and Diplomas’,” said Southern Boosters President John Mulherin. “The credit for this success starts with current Board Chair Phil Moore, and the Board of Directors for their leadership and efforts ranging from soliciting funds, to finding prospects, to approving capital expenditures for the betterment of Georgia Southern University Athletics.”
