Immanuel Lutheran High School Athletic Booster Club Incorporated

The Immanuel Athletic Boosters Club (IAB) was originally formed in 2006 with the stated goal to provide financial support through fundraising activities, and where applicable, a labor force to help implement projects identified by Immanuel Lutheran High School for its interscholastic athletic program. The IAB was set up under the non-profit and tax exempt corporate structure of Immanuel Lutheran High School and College, Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

In 2024 it became apparent that the primary means of fundraising for the IAB (namely providing labor for Eau Claire area music festivals) was no longer viable, and a new way to operate was going to be needed to move into the future.

The Executive Board determined that the IAB should be its own entity and ceasevoperation under the corporate structure of ILHS, which was the intent from IAB inception. In June of 2025, the Immanuel Athletic Boosters reorganized and registered as a non-profit corporation in the state of Wisconsin , formally named “Immanuel Lutheran High School Athletic Booster Club, Incorporated” EIN 39-2511903. The Booster Club received authorization to operate as a tax-exempt organization under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) on July 22, 2025.

After six months of planning, research and internal restructuring, the “new” IAB launched. Based on a membership model, the revised structure will allow for greater participation from interested Boosters across the country and continue to provide opportunity for local Eau Claire Boosters to support athletics at ILHS.
