About Matpac Wrestling Club
Matpac Wrestling Club Inc backs wrestling as both a sport and a character-building program, with a stated purpose to help wrestlers “love the sport, build strong character and integrity” so they can succeed on the mat and in life. Its recent giving shows that mission in practice: large operating grants support wrestling institutions and related community groups, while some awards are directed to facilities and student-athlete support. The biggest recent grant in the file went to UND Alumni Association for its Operating Fund, and the foundation also made six-figure operating gifts to USA Wrestling Association and the University of Mary. Those awards sit alongside support for local wrestling infrastructure and scholarship-oriented assistance, showing a funder that uses both institutional support and direct athlete aid. The grant record also includes community support for organizations outside wrestling, including Pulse Outreach and local nonprofits in Bismarck and beyond, which suggests a broader neighborhood and youth-sports orientation tied to the club’s mission. Across the file, the pattern is consistent with a regional funder that combines sport-specific investment with practical support for nearby organizations.
What Matpac Wrestling Club Funds
Wrestling is the clearest anchor of the foundation’s giving. In 2025, it gave $100,000 to USA Wrestling Association for Operating Fund and $38,635 to USA Wrestling - ND for Operating Fund, while also directing $32,002 to Bismarck State College to purchase wrestling mats. That mix points to support for governing bodies and the facilities that serve athletes. Education-linked support also appears in the record: Thief River Falls Education Foundation received $50,000 in 2024 for Community Support, and University of Mary received $32,000 in 2024 for Community Support. The foundation also funds local social and service organizations, including $25,000 to Pulse Outreach for Community Support and $12,000 to Fellowship of Christian Athletes for Operating Fund. Those grants show a willingness to support both athletic pathways and adjacent community programs.
How Matpac Wrestling Club Gives
Typical awards cluster in the low five figures: p25 is $6,500, median grant size is $9,000, and p75 is $26,750. The recent record includes both large operating gifts and smaller community support awards, so the foundation uses a wide range of grant sizes rather than a single fixed ticket. Multiple recipients appear in more than one year, including Bismarck State College, University of Mary, and Pulse Outreach, which indicates recurring relationships rather than one-time grants only. The funder is a nonprofit club rather than a private foundation, and it accepts unsolicited requests through several active programs, including scholarship and community support channels.
