Official Announcement Newsletter of the St. Francis Golf-a-thon
Announcing the inaugural St. Francis Golf-a-thon, benefitting St. Francis Catholic Church (Sherwood) which is raising support for their Social Action Ministries and Knights of Columbus that include - the Food Pantry, Hope Diner, Clothes Closet, Hope Garden, NW Family Services, college scholarships, youth group activity support and more.
WE NEED YOU to attempt to smash 100 golf balls with us on Aug 13, 2022 at Topgolf in Hillsboro. With minimal participation from 25 or more volunteers, we can raise $50,000 or more in the next several weeks to support the under-served families in our community.
We have made a commitment, and now WE NEED YOU. Right now we are putting together our St. Francis Golf-a-thon Team and we want you on it. We’re inviting you to participate in a KEY volunteer position. Each volunteer has a very limited, yet well defined, responsibility.
We promise, this won’t take much of your time. We need volunteers who will commit to following the instructions of this proven fundraising program and support the under-served families in our community. You may even win some great prizes!
You can be a St. Francis’ Golf-a-thon Participant. Here’s what you commit to:
We’re looking for 6 Champions to serve as Team Captains to accomplish the above 1 – 2 – 3 and put together a team of four fundraisers (including yourself).
People give to People. All you have to do is ASK for help in this all-out endeavor for St. Francis, and our experience shows that about 8 of 10 will pledge to support the cause.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
· What if I don’t golf? No problem! Topgolf is fantastic and fun for beginners. (Check out the Topgolf experience HERE and see for yourself).
· What if I can’t golf or be there on Aug 13? Again no problem! Simply be a Non-Golfing Participant and follow the same plan, then you or we will get a proxy golfer to smash golf balls for you (let us know!).
· How is this organized? This is a super, well-organized and fun campaign. The St. Francis Golf-a-thon website is the key to our success - where you enter your sponsor’s pledge information. You don’t have to collect any money. Just get pledges from those you know (your friends, family, neighbors, associates, etc.) and the site will send them a big thank you email letter with receipt for their tax-deductible donation, and details for paying their pledge.
