Celebrating a Legacy of Giving

The Eppright Distinguished Donors program recognizes individuals or businesses that have contributed a cumulative total of $100,000 or more to support Texas A&M Athletics through the 12th Man Foundation. Named in honor of Col. George J. Eppright '26, members of this esteemed group play a vital role in driving the continued success of Aggie Athletics.

Col. George J. Eppright '26 had a deep love for his school and demonstrated that through a rich history of lifetime giving to Texas A&M. A loyal former student, Eppright made multiple gifts across campus and rarely missed Texas A&M football games. As a final tribute to his alma mater, Eppright donated the majority of his estate — $4.4 million in cash — to benefit athletics through the 12th Man Foundation.

In tribute to his legacy of giving, the 12th Man Foundation proudly honors Eppright Distinguished Donors with the following benefits and recognition.
