Clarkston Chiefs - Fund Rush for Football
Clarkston Football Association, aka the Clarkston Chiefs, is a youth sports program with over 50 years of history in the Clarkston, Michigan community. The organization offers tackle football and cheerleading programs where coaching not only includes instruction in the sport but also guidance on the importance of education, teamwork, citizenship and community. Participation in Clarkston Chiefs has become a generational tradition for many Clarkston families.
The Clarkston Chiefs rely on the registration fees charged as well as fundraising to keep the organization operational. Outfitting and fielding over 150 participants annually gets pretty expensive, not to mention trying to stay up to date on all of the equipment needs of the teams and players!
Here is where we need your help!
COVID-19 not only impacted our participant's ability to have a full season in 2020 but also our annual fundraising totals. Many of our traditional fundraisers were not available to us due to the impact of the pandemic on the food and beverage industry, many of our long time restaurant partners were not able to work with us and we are definitely feeling the trickle down effect.
We are looking for donations to help make up for the 2020 fundraising shortfall as well as fund a large investment in a major overhaul of our equipment. At the forefront the organization is hoping to purchase new helmets for the 2021 season, as well as other new equipment for both the football and cheer programs. The quantities we will be able to purchase will depend on the amount of funds we are able to raise. Time is not our side for the football helmets, we need to get an order placed soon to have them in time for our first practices of the 2021 season.
Let's keep this amazing opportunity for these boys and girls going for another 50 years! Please donate what you can, every little bit will help!
Cheers to a new year, new experiences and lifelong memories being made.
Thank you! - Clarkston Chiefs
