Making a Gift
Campus Recreation has been leading the way for students to continue their pursuit of healthy activities and to give them a platform to pursue personal goals. Through effective programming we encourage leadership and a sense of community. Here are two opportunities to give that will directly benefit students.
The Barbara "Bobbi" Hein Internship Fund
Code: 770264
2008-09 Intern:
Ashley Rodriguez
Bobbi Hein began working for Campus Recreation in 1968. Then called "The Division of Intramural Activities," Bobbi has seen, first-hand, the metamorphosis that has taken place in Campus Rec.
Through her tenure here, Bobbi has taken literally hundreds of University of Illinois students under her wing. Many of them still keep in touch, sending holiday greetings, pictures of their families and enduring memories made possible by her gracious care.
Campus Rec would like to provide other students with the kind of mentoring and caring environment that Bobbi has provided for today's aspiring seniors. The Barbara Hein Internship Position provides an opportunity to gain professional experience under the watchful eyes of the Director and the Campus Rec staff. Leadership, networking, program evaluation and assessment are just a few of the aspects of the position that will help this individual grow and learn in a professional, progressive work environment.
The experience built through interpersonal relationships, effective communication, time management, and new opportunities exemplify the heart and soul of Bobbi's commitment to Campus Rec. We believe that this endowment is a well-deserved legacy that will keep Bobbi's spirit of giving alive.
The Student Programming Fund

Campus Rec at Quad Day
Campus Recreation plays a vital role, on campus, of providing students with healthy alternatives to compliment their academic endeavors. Campus Rec believes in promoting more opportunities for students to get together in informal situations. Providing space and programming options are second nature to the staff and part of the mission of the department as a whole.
The Student Programming Fund would give Registered Organizations the opportunity to plan special group gatherings at a discounted rate. These organizations are constantly looking for areas to gather and Campus Rec would like to give them the help they need to expand their options and provide just such alternatives.
With your help, these funds will allow student groups to expand their creative endeavors by offsetting costs for what would otherwise be a missed opportunity.
