We are live! The GoFundMe page is set up and can be found here: http://www.gofundme.com/4u1j6o
Any donation would be awesome. As noted in the summary below, should we get enough funds, we will video blog everything and 100% of your donation will be donated to our cause.
Goal Summary:
We are a group of 3 college students who want to start a sports charity in the near future. In the meantime, with the funds collected via GoFundMe, we will turn those generous donations into sports equipment, sports apparel, etc. and go into lower income neighborhoods where they can’t afford new sports equipment and sports related items and donate those items, whether that be to individuals or school sports programs.
Initially, this will be a local activity, primarily around the greater Tampa Bay region. However, if this effort shows positive sings of support, our goal is to do this nationally and then internationally.
100% of your received donation will go towards our donations. As mentioned above, eventually we would like to create a charity, but we lack essential funds to get our feet off the ground on that note. Therefore, 30% of your donation will be set aside in an effort to start building funds to start said charity in the near future. If for some reason we do not go forward on setting up a charity, that 30% will be donated just has it would have before, if we didn’t set it aside.
So how will I know my donation will be used responsibly and for the reason I chose to donate? We will video blog every donation we make and they will also be posted to both YouTube and our blog (https://benchwarmerssportsblog.wordpress.com). On the blog, we will break down everything there in more detail.

Sincerely,
Cody Gonzalez, Cylas Romain Martell-Crawford and Tyler Pearl
