2021 was another great year for our FlipGive family with the Inauguration of our Rally & Raise contest. This year, we've awarded over $25,000 in prizes to teams who worked together to bring new team members on board and who worked together to raise more throughout the month of the contest. 'Tis is the season of giving and these are our winners for this 2021's challenge.
1. Raise Challenge
First Place of the Raise Challenge: The Twin Centre U11Rep team won $3,000
"The Twin Centre U11Rep team is a team of hard-working hockey players who strive to improve their sills each time they hit the ice. Both platers and families show dedication and team-first mentality in every aspect of the game. Wanting to make this season memorable for the team, families came together to fundraise to fund team wear, tournaments, extra ice time and team building events. FlipGive has a fantastic fundraising initiative which allows us to raise funds while shopping for the things we would have been purchasing already! Some tips and tricks from our team to yours:
- buy automatic reloading gift cards for things you purchase regularly (gas, groceries) That way, you don't have to remember to purchase gift cards each time you go
- do a quick search before doing any online shopping. You will be surprised what stores are available on FlipGive!
- book tournament hotels through the FlipGive app/website
- buy gift cards for many restaurants offered on FlipGive and use them in lieu of cash when eating out
- invite your family and friends and show them how easy it is to ear funds for the team
- refer another team to take advantage of the referral bonus"
Second Place of the Raise Challenge: The Jackson Bears 12u Purple team won $2,000
"Jackson Bears 12u Purple is one of 14 teams in the Jackson Baseball Travel Program that is based out of Jackson Township in Massillon, Ohio. The team is comprised of players that attend Jackson Local Schools who will eventually play for Jackson High School as the 2028 Graduating Class.
The team is a true community team where all our athletes play 2- 3 additional sports together. They go to school together, learn to compete as a team, but more importantly build lifelong friendships. Last year the team travelled to Maryland, Georgia, and various locations throughout Ohio. In 2022, we have another great year planned to develop team chemistry with potential trips planned to Northeast Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and the grand finale taking place in Cooperstown, New York the home of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
We are so grateful for the partnership with FlipGive to help with our fundraising efforts. The platform is simple to use and has created a great avenue for our families to raise money! We will continue to use and promote the platform for all our teams in our travel program!"
