Two families who have been at the forefront of Rutgers' Big Ten Build campaign are stepping up their support again.
Jeff and Amy Towers as well as Ron and Joanna Garutti both pledged on Twitter on Sunday night to match all donations to the fundraising initiative dollar-for-dollar up to $100,000 for the next 24 hours.
In other words, if other Rutgers supporters donate $100,000 to Big Ten Build by Monday night, the total donation will be $300,000 thanks to the prominent boosters.
As of March 15, Rutgers raised $71.1 million from 2,221 donors in the first 15 months of the Big Ten Build since it was launched by athletics director Pat Hobbs in January 2016.
