New futbol training is starting
Posted by SpencerC on November 26, 2024, 10:36 am
Hola! Coach Agape is requesting 5,000 pesos to help kick off the training sessions. This is to buy 20 balls at 250p each. There are approximately 100 children playing soccer in La Manzanilla and support from the community is vital to keeping them going.
I would like to set up a more steady stream of funding for the teams where we could have an annual pool of funds instead of these occasional requests. Any ideas are appreciated at LaManzMod@gmail.com
In the meantime, donations for the new soccer balls can be given to Agape at either La Boheme restaurant or Tacos Tres Hermanas. I can also accept PayPal, Venmo or Interac (CDN$) at scmbcolby@gmail.com.
Otra Vez will donate 10,000 annually….but we have given recently and have other projects going now! Let’s talk in March! Spencer will you be the teams banker? Lmk! Gracias!
Gracias Pablo, I believe that actually brings us to the total 5,000 including a couple other donations received via Interac and in cash.
Any additional funds I receive will go towards an annual fund that would be distributed as needed. This will help us get more organized with a spreadsheet and some simple accounting to track the spending over a year. SpencerC/Moderator
Hey Spencer, great news that the immediate fundraising goal has now been met. The annual fund idea sounds promising. Thanks for all your efforts in this regard.
