Brazilian Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 I'm going to try and raise funds to sponsor a player for the seventh year of the WTFC-steelmenonline forums, If you want to join in just pledge an amount in this thread and I'll add it to the first post as we go THE IDEA & COSTS It costs between £275 & £345 to sponsor each players various pieces of kit (Away, Home or Euro). The idea is that people contribute in multiples of £5 in order to get them a 'raffle ticket' for a draw asap after payments are collected in at the end of the season. The winner of the draw will receive the sponsors privileges ( sponsored top & opportunity to receive it at an end of season event) So, if you donate £5, you will get one chance at winning the strip/s, whereas a £20 donation will get you four chances and so on....... It's basically whatever you can afford, but £5 is the minimum pledge. Most of us can't afford to sponsor a player ourselves, but doing it like this we can help support club and every fiver contributed has approximately a 1 in 60'ish chance of winning Slight change this year if we go ahead , I'm hoping to make the draw as early as possible ( when all payments are made ) rather than wait until the end of season, maybe even do it for Christmas ??? PAYMENT: Send PayPal payment to.... iainmande@hotmail.com , Not used my PayPal since last years fundraiser but reckon if the contribution is marked as a GIFT payment then I should receive the full amount Please remember to include your board name in the PayPal payment so I can mark it off, and also that it's for sponsorship and remember its a GIFT payment PM or post here, if you require postal details to send a cheque or we'll try and arrange meets. I'll gauge interest and try and publish a final date, so we are not chasing money or left with a shortfall. I'll get a list of available players, if it looks like we can gather together enough funds to go ahead and contribute to the club. I believe DelBoy had a good evening last year in the company of players and management and is well chuffed with receiving Suttons top. Followed up this year by Lankymac going along and receiving Murphys Euro hat-trick top Pledge list 2010/2011 (paid in bold) Frazzle £20 delboy £20 Finlay £10 SteveDiggle £15 fatcalf £10 Gaag £20Coolhandluc £10 foghorn £10 wellmanandy £10 stuwell £10 Well_Fan_In_Aberdeen £20 BarnsleyFCfan £10 KMCalpin £20 Kiai £15 Brazilian £10£30 Mad Well Dobe Owner £15 motherwellfan1 £5 Andy_P £5 Stuarty £10 Special aka £10 Trafficlight £10 Joe Wark The Legend £10 GrantRough £10 WeeYin £10 DennyC £10 Carluke Dosser £10 Numpty £20 mfc1886 £10 Edit: Added what I put in Total raised £345 £295 sponsorship and £50 put into the Youth development raffle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
