Help Take Viking Vaulters to New Heights!

Who We Are:

We are the Viking Track and Field Pole Vault squad—powerful, graceful and dedicated athletes committed to achieving excellence both on and off the field. As a close-knit and dynamic group, we thrive on a culture of family, teamwork, and competitive spirit. This year, we proved ourselves as key contributors to the success of the WWU Track and Field team, placing third in both Men's and Women's GNAC Indoor Championships and 2nd in Women's GNAC Outdoor Championships. Along with an impressive sweep of the Men's Outdoor GNAC podium and tied for 4th. These were key contributions to the overall team first place at both Indoor and Outdoor GNAC Championships! And, as we welcome some pretty great talent to our team this year, we know big things lie ahead for the Viking Vault Crew!

Our Goal:

We’re raising funds to invest in new equipment and to cover travel expenses for upcoming meets. These resources will enable every vaulter on the team to perform at their best, ensuring they have the support and tools necessary to succeed.

Why We Need Your Support:

Despite our remarkable achievements, our budget remains limited. To continue excelling, we need to provide our vaulters with the experiences and opportunities they deserve. Here’s how your donation can make a difference:

• Equipment: Pole Vaulters are uniquely dependent on high quality equipment to fulfill their highest potential. Better equipment means better preparation and performance and can literally raise the bar for our Pole Vaulters. 
• Travel Expenses: Attending competitions requires transportation, lodging, and meals—all crucial to making sure every athlete can participate and compete at their best.

Our total Pole Vaulters fundraising goal is $6,000.

Your Impact:

Your donation will go directly to supporting the vaulters on our team. Rather than distributing funds across our entire 136-member roster, your contribution will be streamlined to support your favorite Student-Athlete and their event group, the Pole Vault squad. This means your donation will have a direct and tangible impact on the person you’re supporting!

How Your Contribution Helps—The Win-Win-Win Scenario:

• WWU Track & Field Wins: With your support, we’ll be able to ensure that each Pole Vaulter has the tools they need to thrive.
• Your Student-Athlete Wins: By helping them reach their individual fundraising goal of $600 they will not only have the resources they need to compete but will also receive a premium WWU Track & Field Nike gear package!
• You Win: Every dollar you give directly benefits the vaulter or event group of your choice.
