Why should I join the Red White Club?
Because champions aren’t built alone. The Red White Club is the official booster club of St. John’s Athletics, powering all 17 of our BIG EAST Division I programs. Your support fuels the wins—on the field, on the court, and in the classroom—by providing critical resources for team travel, recruiting, facilities, and more. Give $100 or more, and you're officially on the team (with some awesome perks, too).
Can anyone join the Red White Club?
Absolutely. Alumni, parents, and friends of St. John’s University are all welcome. Starting at just $100, there’s an opportunity for everyone to get involved and make an impact.
Are there other ways to support the Red White Club?
Yes. In addition to annual cash gifts and gifts-in-kind, donors can contribute through securities, trusts, bequests, and endowments. To explore these options, please contact Nick Vendikos ’91SVC, Senior Director of Athletic Development, at 718-990-6147 or vendikon@stjohns.edu.
Will my company’s matching gift count toward my Red White Club total?
Yes—if your company matches your donation and you’ve submitted the necessary forms, your total giving record will reflect the match. Please note that matching gift disbursements can vary in timing (annually, semi-annually, or quarterly), and some companies restrict matching funds for athletics or for gifts tied to ticketing benefits. Your HR department can provide details on your company’s matching gift policy.
Is my gift tax deductible?
Yes. Gifts to the Red White Club are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
Can I direct my gift to a specific sport or program?
Definitely. While we encourage unrestricted support of the Red White Annual Fund to help meet the department’s greatest needs, you’re welcome to designate your gift to any of our 17 varsity sports or support groups.
