$10

Student Supporter

Student Supporters demonstrate broad belief in academic competition and student leadership. Every contribution at this level moves us closer to our $7,000 goal and collectively helps close funding gaps across travel, competition, and preparation needs. These gifts symbolize community backing behind our team as we represent Oklahoma State University at NACTA 2027.

$100

Friend of Ag Econ

Friends of Ag Econ help sustain the day-to-day necessities of competition travel. Gifts at this level contribute toward meals, local transportation, and incidental expenses that arise during the NACTA trip. This support ensures that students can focus fully on competition without worrying about the smaller, but essential, costs associated with multi-day academic travel.

$250

Cowboy Contributor

Cowboy Contributors strengthen our preparation and presentation as competitors. Donations at this level support practice resources, competition materials, team preparation sessions, and professional representation items such as coordinated apparel. This investment ensures our team arrives confident, unified, and academically prepared to compete against the nation’s top agricultural programs.

$500

Trail Supporter

Trail Supporters provide the housing foundation for our time at competition. A gift at this level helps secure safe and professional lodging accommodations for our team during the multi-day NACTA event. By covering overnight stays, this support allows students to remain focused, rested, and prepared to perform at their highest academic level throughout the competition.

$1,000

Brains Builder

Brains Builders directly fund the cost of entering and competing in NACTA 2027. A contribution at this level covers team and individual registration fees required for participation, making it possible for our students to step into the competition arena. This investment ensures that our preparation translates into opportunity and that our team has official access to compete, network, and represent Oklahoma State University on the national stage.

$1,500

Big Sky Partner

Big Sky Partners underwrite the core cost of competing at the national level. A gift at this level funds major transportation expenses, such as airfare or long-distance vehicle rental, ensuring our team can physically reach the NACTA 2027 competition site. This level of support provides the financial stability that allows every selected team member to attend, regardless of personal financial circumstances, and anchors the overall success of the campaign.
