Promote Your Organization

Many student organizations find apparel items such as t-shirts, jackets, hats, etc. with the group’s name and logo are a great way to promote the student organization. This requires intentional communication and coordination with the Student Involvement and Shared Business Services staff. Read the guidelines for Buying Apparel Items and contact the Student Involvement and Leadership Center at getinvolved@boisestate.edu or (208) 426-1223 with any questions.

A button maker can be checked out from the Student Involvement and Leadership Center. Submit an Equipment Request Form to reserve a time to use the button maker. A Purchase Request Form must also be submitted at least seven (7) business days prior to the requested use date to cover the cost of making buttons.
