Gift a Membership
Part of each membership includes a charitable gift to the University of Illinois. Our alumni are making a difference across campus and around the world by supporting students and the groundbreaking research completed at the University. The charitable portion of your gift membership will go towards sustaining and promoting the Marching Illini Band Fund.
Marching Illini Band Fund
The Marching Illini Band Fund provides comprehensive support for the Marching Illini, ensuring a first-class experience for all its members. From instrument purchases to uniform maintenance, the production of halftime music and drill, and facilitating travel to away games, your contributions impact every aspect of the band’s operations.
The Marching Illini serve as ambassadors for the University and our Fighting Illini athletic teams, providing musical spirit at all home football games, men’s and women’s basketball games, volleyball games and other athletic events. In addition, the Marching Illini serves and performs for many other campus, state, regional, national and international events. Four hundred STRONG, its members represent academic units across the Urbana-Champaign campus. The Marching Illini culture and philosophy provides opportunities to pursue and achieve excellence, teamwork, discipline and other important life lessons.
