In July, we celebrated our best fundraising year in history, Illinois State University Police welcomed a four-legged “pawfficer” to campus, Redbird Baseball alum Paul DeJong took the field as a National League All-Star, and Reggie Redbird was named the best mascot in the Missouri Valley Conference. Check out the highlights from these moments and more in this month’s Redbird Roundup!
You did it! #SageIsComing With 22 days left in our fundraiser we now work on prepping our #FutureRedbird for move-in. Keep sharing Sage's story & we'll post as she shops at Bark Bath & Beyond, and maybe we can raise a little extra to make Sage feel right at home #YourRedbirdLife pic.twitter.com/85Gv4T3yG1
