Hosting a Fundraising Night 

We are interested in providing a wide variety of Fundraisers with Registered Student Organizations and Sports Clubs! These groups would have the ability to customize the Games Area to better serve their interests and participants, including setting their own music, playing movies, setting up a table for promotion or merchandise sales, playing their own games, and more! For full details, please see the Fundraiser Contract.
