Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball Raises Over $5K

About Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball

Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball is a competitive baseball program for youth aged 8-12 in the Calgary area. The baseball organization takes a balanced approach to training, practice, and competition and is designed to help athletes improve their skills and play with like-minded peers at similar ability levels while staying local.

However, this does not mean they never get to travel. One of the most coveted opportunities at Cal Ripken is Alberta Selects. These two travel teams, in addition to their regular season, allow elite players to travel as far as the USA to play competitive baseball and create friendships with talented athletes.

One of Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball’s biggest goals is to provide an affordable experience and support the best athletes to compete in the World Series, regardless of any financial barriers. To make this possible, Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball has teamed up with TeamFund Fundraising to offer tasty food fundraisers for their parents.

Fill Your Freezer & Raise Funds: Over $3K Raised in Spring 2024

Alberta Cal Ripken Baseball parents love stocking their freezers with restaurant-quality grocery staples: bacon, burgers, steak, sausages, and more. As we love to say: Fill Your Freezer & Raise Funds!

All purchases are made online (no inventory or cash handling!) and delivered to the team a few weeks later. TeamFund offers a seamless online fundraising experience for organizers and fundraisers alike.

In the last two years, Cal Ripken has raised $5,634 to support sending their kids to the World Series:

All in all, I guess you could say they hit a home run! They love that TeamFund offers fundraising that:

✅ Families were keen on buying and selling (everyone needs to eat!)

✅ Do not involve “chance” lotteries or raffles

✅ Restaurant-quality, healthy food options to fit their lifestyle

✅ Has an easy, user-friendly online fundraising platform

✅ Would not overextend already busy parents and volunteers with timely activities like door-to-door sales while taking advantage of the team-building aspects of fundraising

By working with TeamFund, Cal Ripken has saved hours of volunteer time, avoided having to hawk apparel or “chances” to win something, and had successful campaigns with great payback. Plus, they can easily return again and again with little to no start-up issues!
