How else can I get involved?

If you have a passion for athletics and love the IUPUI Jaguars, a volunteer role on one of our many Jaguars Athletics Club Board of Director sub-committees may be a perfect opportunity to get "plugged in." Volunteers are instrumental to our success as an athletics program by providing generous gifts of time, talent, and expertise. Volunteering opportunities include helping peers remain connected to the IUPUI Jaguars Athletics program in meaningful ways, encouraging others to volunteer support, and soliciting financial participation throughout all areas of the central Indiana community and beyond.
