This is Sparta is a Fund within Charitable Gift America, a 501(c)3 charitable organization, designed to empower Michigan State University student-athletes to make positive impacts on communities and charities close to their hearts while utilizing their Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL). Your support of this unique opportunity will change the game for players, charitable causes, and Michigan State Athletics, all at the same time. 

Contributions of all amounts are accepted allowing Spartan fans to pool their contributions to make a significant impact with NIL agreements for MSU Student Athletes. Charitable Gift America has a pro bono board of directors with over 100 years of collective non-profit experience. We look forward to assisting all donors in supporting MSU Student Athletes as they change the world both on and off the field. .

Pooling contributions together will give us the best opportunity to enter into NIL Agreements that will make a significant difference to the student athlete and the communities and charities they support.  The goal is to raise significant contributions prior to the Fall '22 Semester, then contract with the student athletes in the five varsity programs. Fans can contribute in a multitude of ways to the Fund, and our unique ability to provide donors with charitable life income plans (both fixed and variable payments at no cost) opens an entirely new way to support MSU or any of their favorite charities. These arrangements may also qualify towards the Spartan Fund point system.

Charitable Gift America is currently focusing on five different varsity sports at MSU. Football (the position group of defensive linemen), Baseball (Pitching Staff), Softball (Pitching Staff), Men's and Women's Basketball. Charitable contributions can be designated for any of the five teams. The initial agreements with student athletes will be in the Fall '22 Semester.

Charitable Gift America is the nation's leader in assisting donors with various types of gifts including both fixed and variable charitable life income plans. This is Sparta can be supported with gifts of cash, publicly traded securities, real estate or even cryptocurrency! Establishing a gift that can pay you, and your heirs, can also seamlessly add to your point total at the Spartan Fund.
