CHARLESTON — Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck have signed up to help raise money for an athletic complex at her hometown university in West Virginia.

University of Charleston President Ed Welch says Garner and Affleck will serve as honorary hosts at a Sept. 19 fundraiser.

Garner says the University of Charleston was "incredibly positive when I was a kid" growing up in Charleston. She says she's excited to hear the university is growing.

Welch says the university hopes to raise more than $500,000 at the fundraiser. The complex will house the school's basketball and volleyball programs and is projected to cost at least $20 million.
