About the Born to be a Cardinal program
If you are a Ball State alumnus and the proud new parent or grandparent of a child age 0 to 12 months, the Ball State Alumni Association would like to say congratulations and enroll the newborn in the Born to be a Cardinal program.
The cost to enroll in the program is a minimum of $15.00. Once the newborn is enrolled, the Alumni Association will send the new Cardinal a Ball State bib, a magnet photo frame with the Born to be a Cardinal logo, and set up a custodial account in the amount of $10.00 minimum in the child's name with the Ball State Federal Credit Union. All amounts above $15.00 will go directly into the custodial account.
The Ball State Federal Credit Union is a proud sponsor of the Born to be a Cardinal program.
