Hurricane Impact, Inc., an independent Oklahoma 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit corporation, is one of three NIL platforms that has been established to benefit student-athletes at The University of Tulsa.
 
Hurricane Impact has launched their official website, HurricaneImpact.org. Those interested in participating in the Hurricane Impact fund can click here: HURRICANE IMPACT.  Hurricane Impact was formed to solicit financial support from individuals and corporations wishing to support student-athletes across all sports who are attending The University of Tulsa.
 
For additional information on Hurricane Impact, executive director David Fuess can be reached at 817.896.8650 or dfuess@outlook.com.
 
An additional NIL initiative, GHSP Allied NIL provides corporate sponsors with the opportunity to include Tulsa intellectual property (marks and logos) in their NIL deals with student-athletes. LEARFIELD, which does not represent student-athletes, manages its Allied NIL initiative directly with sponsors through its local Golden Hurricane Sports Properties team. When any third-party integration is needed for student-athlete connections, the recommended marketplace is opendorse.com/tulsa-goldenhurricane
 
Another opportunity to benefit student-athletes is through the Tulsa Academic Enhancement Award, which provides additional aid to TU student-athletes for academic and living expenses not covered by their university scholarship. Awards are given based on academic achievement. Each student-athlete is eligible for a maximum of $8,000 per calendar year through the Tulsa Academic Enhancement Award. Gifts given to the Tulsa Academic Enhancement Award are eligible for Golden Hurricane Champions Fund benefits and may be tax deductible. Donors should consult a tax advisor for guidance on what is tax deductible). Those interested in participating in the Tulsa Academic Enhancement should contact Pooh Williamson at pooh-williamson@utulsa.edu.     
 
TU does not receive any financial benefit from any NIL platform. NCAA rules require that universities advise the student-athletes to ensure an equitable and ethical process.
