Fundraising with Pies and Pizza to Keep Football Affordable
On a crisp autumn morning, I arrived at the Bulldogs’ delivery for their recent TeamFund fundraiser to find seven excited volunteers already stacking boxes.Â
The delivery took place at their home field garage at Our Lady of Peace in Calgary (side note: with a beautiful mural that mimicked the excitement in the air!)Â
I had the opportunity to speak to the current Bantam Team Manager, Sheri, about the amazing work they do for youth in the area.Â
Sheri started with the club in 2010 and has held many roles over the years: from team manager at various levels to vice president to treasurer.
The Bulldogs raised over $2800 in their most recent fundraiser, selling Coco Brooks and Simple Simons.
Usually, they go for the Fill Your Freezer, but wanted to switch it up this time and try a new vendor.Â
Pointing to the stacks of boxes against the garage, Sheri was excited to see that the fundraiser was well received.Â
She loves how easy TeamFund is:Â
“It’s a good fundraiser to have – everybody needs groceries and it’s easy!”
Fundraising helps the Bulldogs with Equipment, Field Rentals, and More
Most of their fundraising dollars go to cover equipment costs, field rentals, and renting the garage at their home field Our Lady of Peace. (the garage in the picture!) Anything left over goes into a fund to support athletes who can’t afford to play.
We help you every step of the way. Online fundraising means fewer hours inside spreadsheets and more time replaced enjoying football games, engaging with the community, and promoting all the wonderful programming Bulldogs Football offers!
