Support Rec Clubs

Recreational Clubs Development Fund (RECSPO)

The Department of Recreation has established a tax-deductible Development Fund to provide Clubs the opportunity to seek additional funding support other than that provided from their Rec Clubs Annual Budget allocation. In addition to helping many clubs attend regional and national competitions, this fund has also supported clubs for expenses such as:

  • league dues and entry fees
  • out of state travel
  • purchase of equipment and facility rental (for clubs who cannot be provided space at the IMA)

Together UW- Crowdfunding Projects at UW

Clubs can also participate in the University-sponsored crowdfunding platform: TogetherUW.  Several clubs have used the platform for successful campaigns in the past, and we anticipate many clubs will have active projects this year.

Peterson-Pearsall Rec Clubs Endowed Fund

The Peterson-Pearsall Rec Clubs Endowed Fund is a general club program endowment which may provide funding for re-emerging or expanding clubs, or emerging clubs that are part of, but not yet funded by, the UW program. This endowment houses a general fund to which others may contribute for both current and future clubs within University of Washington Recreation.
