BOISE, Idaho – Boise State Athletics received a $1 million commitment, director of athletics Jeramiah Dickey announced Wednesday. The donor has requested to remain anonymous.
The gift is the seventh $1 million commitment to the Lyle Smith Society since the philanthropic giving society started in December 2020.
"Thank you Bronco Nation for investing in our Power 5 mentality," said Dickey. "Your commitment helps us stay competitive and maintain an elite environment for our student-athletes to succeed."
The donation is allocated to capital improvements, including the north end zone project.
Last month, the Idaho State Board of Education approved the issuance of a design-build bid and to proceed with the planning and design stage of the project. The north end zone facility will impact every Boise State student-athlete and significantly impacts all four pillars of the What's Next Initiative: student-athlete experience; revenue generation; infrastructure; and marketability.
"It is incredible to see Bronco Nation rally behind the vision for Boise State Athletics with this level of support," said Mike Keller, associate athletic director for major gifts. "We are so thankful for the philanthropic commitments that will alter the trajectory of Bronco Athletics and change the lives of current and future student-athletes."
