FUNDRAISING

 

Vancouver Minor Baseball is strictly a non profit organization.  We run a budget on a yearly basis, hoping that we have enough registration to cover most of our operating expenses.  With the expected shortfall in operating revenue, we have to rely solely on donations or fundraising to cover the deficit.

Fundraising not only allows us to meet our operating budget but also allows us to plan ahead to cover costs for future or immediate projects that will benefit the league and our players.

Corporate donations and sponsorships play a necessary role in strengthening youth activities in our community.  Their ability to provide donations and gift certificates for raffle basket fundraisers, prizes and sponsorship of events help to offset costs normally absorbed by our association.  Our 'toonie toss' is a major fundraising event for us and it is important for the parents to realize how much they can help their children in receiving pledges.

If you know of any corporation or entity that relishes in helping youth organizations by contributing financially or materially, please contact any member of our league executive and advise him/her of the situation.  Remember, every little gift helps; no matter how big or small.
