CHAP Program Guide Fundraiser
November 9, 2007
Dear CHAP Parents and Athletes:
Another exciting year of winter basketball is upon us! With both boys and girls playing this season we have some new challenges facing us this year. We are working hard to finalize the teams, coaches, gyms, practice times and game schedules for you. With the cost of everything on the rise, we really need your effort again this year with our CHAP Program Guide.
How is CHAP funded? We work very hard to keep participation costs to CHAP families at an absolute minimum with no surprises. CHAP funds its entire program in the following manner: 1/3 of the costs are covered by families’ participation fees, 1/3 by individual and corporate donations, and 1/3 by our CHAP Program Guide. The Program Guide is our only fund raising effort each year and it has been invaluable in funding our teams and keeping costs as affordable as possible.
What is the CHAP Program Guide? It is a quality booklet which contains all our teams’ pictures along with ads of different sizes that contain information about our sponsors. The size of the “ad” is determined by the size of the donation a company or business (or individual) makes to CHAP. For example, if a business sponsors CHAP for $50, we will print their business card (or other ad they may provide) in our program in 1/8 page size. The larger the donation, the larger the ad.
What can you do to help? Our CHAP athletes simply visit businesses and/or individuals and kindly ask for their support for the athlete’s homeschool team! Many CHAP athletes visit businesses that their parents patronize or are located around their own neighborhood and ask for their support by sponsoring an ad in our program. With just a little effort by every CHAP family, the Program Guide will help off set the rising costs of the facilities we use.
We work to make this a fun and learning experience. Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 athletes who collect the most dollars for CHAP. The Program Guide will be printed and ready by January. We have had many athletes who have enjoyed visiting businesses and have really grown through the process!
So let’s get started! We only have 3 weeks for this fund raiser, but we’re just in time for all your relatives at Thanksgiving! A line of encouragement is only $10.00! You can download more CHAP Program Guide ad forms from our website: www.chapchariots.org.
If you have any questions, please call Bonnie at 323-0839 or e-mail at theopper5@sbcglobal.net .
Looking forward to working with you for a season full of fun, growth and success!
