Can an autographed item be used as an auction or raffle item at a fundraiser?
Yes (with approval from the UTEP Athletics Department). However, if the donated item(s) or proceeds from the donated item are going to benefit high-school age students or student groups in any way, we cannot help. These students are potential student-athletes and therefore, it is a NCAA violation for us to donate to these fund-raisers. • Does UTEP Athletics make autographed items available to individuals? The UTEP Athletics Department occasionally provides autographed items to charitable, educational, and some institutional entities. Typically this is limited to organizations, not individuals. The UTEP Athletics Department policy prohibits personal requests for autograph and memorabilia items. • Will UTEP Athletics consider a donation for the benefit of a religious organization? Yes. • Will UTEP Athletics consider a donation to a for-profit corporate entity? No. This rule is strictly enforced and governed by the NCAA. UTEP Athletics is also prohibited from providing any item to a chari
