Share this page:
The Ahearn Fund was the largest source of revenue for K-State Athletics with cash gifts of $13.2 million received in 2010-11.

The Ahearn Fund grew by 14.5% to an all-time high of 7,027 members in 2011, while total gifts were up 5% over the mark set in 2009-10.

Contributing to the Ahearn Fund not only supports K-State Athletics and each and everyone of our 444-plus student-athletes, but this support also BENEFITS YOU, our loyal Ahearn Fund members. By donating $50 or more annually to the Ahearn Fund you qualify for various sport-specifc and non-sport-specific benefits throughout the following year.

Annual gifts to the Ahearn Fund and priority season-ticket purchases represent the lifeblood of K-State Athletics and allow the department to achieve its vision of a model intercollegiate athletics program. The record $51.46 million budget for FY 2012 includes $6.8 million for student-athlete scholarships to be paid to the university. The remaining portion of Ahearn Fund contributions, along with capital support donations and ticket revenues, are strategically invested in providing a world-class experience to the more than 444-plus student-athletes that represent K-State, striving for the Big 12’s best fan experience and competing for league championships.

Ahearn Fund members who make an annual gift can receive Priority Points and other benefits according to their membership level.
