(from the current Javelina Highlights)
The Texas A&M-Kingsville Student-Athletic Advisory Committee led the Lone Star Conference in money raised for the Make-A-Wish Foundation during the 2012-13 school year.

The Javelina group raised $5,189.83 of the LSC’s $16,951.28. TAMUK more than doubled the second highest total, $2,450.96 by Texas A&M-Commerce.

Totals from other conference schools were $1,956.14 by Angelo State, $1,500 by Eastern New Mexico, $1,391.29 by Cameron, $1,226.48 by Abilene Christian, $1,202.47 by West Texas A&M, $1,052.90 by
Tarleton State, $682.21 by Texas Woman’s and $300 by Incarnate Word.

Midwestern State didn’t have a donation.

NCAA Division II and the LSC have the Make-A-Wish Foundation as their charity for fundraising efforts throughout the school year. TAMUK has been one of the top donors to the campaign each year since the start of the project. The TAMUK SAAC group collects money for Make-A-Wish at home athletic events throughout the school year.
