The Yellow Jacket Club was established in 1978 to allow friends and former athletes of Cedarville University to support the school's athletic program. The primary benefit of being a Yellow Jacket Club member is to provide financial aid to academically qualified athletes and athletic training students who may otherwise not be able to attend Cedarville University. However, members may also request their gift to be used for equipment, special purpose projects, or they may send it undesignated with the monies being distributed at the discretion of the Yellow Jacket Athletic Director.
