AboutĀ Calgary Gymnastics Centre
Calgary Gymnastics Centre is a non-profit sports organization that has been running for almost 50 years. The club originated as the Mount Royal Gymnastics Club and has since grown to two gyms and is one of the premier providers of gymnastics instruction in Calgary.
Whether you are looking for fun and fitness or an international athlete training for the Olympics, Calgary Gymnastics Centre has robust programming for all levels; from preschool to adult and recreational to competitive.
The mission of the Calgary Gymnastics Centre is to foster healthy minds, healthy bodies, and healthy journies in the pursuit of excellence. The culture of the gym focuses on safety first, followed by respect, fun, character, lifelong learning, giving back, and a strong team atmosphere.
As a non-profit, the Calgary Gymnastics Centre strives to make a positive impact on the lives of all of its athletes, families, and staff members. One way that Calgary Gymnastics Centre is able to raise money to keep its doors open is through various fundraising efforts.
Fundraising With Local Vendors to Keep Gymnastics Affordable
Calgary Gymnastics Club partners with TeamFund once or twice a year to offer delicious local food options like pizza, pies, and thai while earning a percentage of the profits back to help cover costs of gymnastics programming.Ā
Since the gyms are based in Calgary, they love to to fundraise with local vendors like Thai Manna, Simple Simonās, and Coco Brooks!
Stocking up on prepared food options helps busy families plan weekly meals while earning an average of 20% back of all sales to support the Calgary Gymnastics Centre.Ā
This February, they offered Coco Brooks Pizza, Simple Simpons, and Thai Manna to raise:Ā
- CGC – North: $1,814.50Ā
- CGC- West: $2,854.22
Bringing in a total of over $4600 to support their athletes this Spring!
Since 2022, this partnership with TeamFund has helped the club raiseĀ over $12,000.
While the gyms could offer each of these fundraisers directly with the vendor, TeamFund helps by offering support from start to finish, from taking online orders to organizing your delivery.
As a not-for-profit organization, all funds raised from fundraising campaigns directly impact athletes and members to help purchase new equipment and fund operational costs.
TeamFund Makes Organizing Your Fundraiser Easy
Not only do parents love the tasty high-quality food products, TeamFund is dedicated to making the fundraising process easy from sign up to delivery.
Within the online dashboard, organizers can confirm their delivery date and time, promote and share their fundraising link, and keep track of progress in real-time.
Once delivery day rolls around, all they need are a few volunteers to organize and sort the boxes. Kayla, the fundraising organizer, enjoyed how easy and well-organized it was at both locations.
We even had the opportunity to attend one of the deliveries:
“Overall the experience was great with everything being there with enough time to organize the orders prior to the pick up beginning. We also appreciated having Lisa on site to support our team of volunteers!”
