The Vandal Excellence Fund/Vandal Boosters Inc. has a beautiful tradition of volunteerism. The individuals with the vision to create Vandal Boosters Inc. were fans and business people just like our volunteer board today. Our board members carry on this tradition of volunteerism and drive to support the student-athletes at the University of Idaho.
The VEF board is made up of individuals from across the west. Our structure ties local VEF chapters into the parent organization in order to ensure direction, oversight, and to adhere to the mission of the VEF.
