BOISE, Idaho – Boise State Athletics received a $750,000 commitment to support infrastructure and maintenance at Albertsons Stadium, director of athletics Jeramiah Dickey announced Monday. The donor has requested to remain anonymous.

“We are so grateful to all those who have embraced the vision for Boise State athletics,” said Dickey. “Every commitment moves us forward, helps us position our student-athletes for greater success and impacts the fan experience.”

Infrastructure is a key pillar of the What’s Next Initiative and includes Albertsons Stadium as one of the 12 priorities critical to position Boise State Athletics for future success and sustainability.

The gift is anticipated to support the purchase and installation of LED lights at Albertsons Stadium as part of continued Experience Blue renovation efforts to enhance the game day experience for fans and student-athletes.

“Our goal of creating an elite fan experience will be possible through this incredible gift,” said Cody Gougler, senior associate athletic director for external affairs. “While we still have process and details to work through, our vision will be to utilize LED lights to impact the in-game atmosphere and serve as a value-add for additional events hosted in Albertsons Stadium throughout the year.”

Future details and developments on the stadium lighting project will be provided in the coming months.

The gift comes as an additional contribution to a previous commitment toward Boise State’s Lyle Smith Society. A leadership giving society to support Boise State Athletics, the purpose of the Lyle Smith Society is to increase philanthropic revenues, providing consistent funding for scholarships, operational needs and capital projects.

Members of the Lyle Smith Society enjoy unique stewardship opportunities and benefits based on giving level, while maintaining the flexibility to designate each gift to the fund of their choice.
