Feb 2 -- SPU Student-Athletes to Join Forces With Make-A-Wish Foundation; Fans Asked to Assist
Seattle Pacific athletes have been given the amazing opportunity to live our lives fully and now get the opportunity to give back to those who can’t. SPU’s Student Athlete Advisory Committee, along with SAACs from all over the nation, are joining forces and resources to grant kids their wishes. You can help us with raising funds. Starting this Saturday at the Homecoming games, raffle tickets for autographed Falcon items will be sold at gymnastics meets and basketball games for the rest of the regular season.
