Boston Renegades! Playoffs! Help!
Donation protected
You may already know the story of our season. The story of how, after winning the national championship for the third time in five years, we suddenly found ourselves stranded when our team's owner announced he was retiring the team's name and discontinuing his involvement with the sport — two days before the first practice of the 2015 season.
We had a full roster, no money and no time to find any. We were told that the team was finished. We were told to take a year or two off and try to rebuild. We were told it would be a mistake to play this season.
We didn't listen.
Through the generosity of personal donors and the dedication of the team, we raised enough funds to get us through the regular season - and we made the playoffs!! But now we're into the postseason, full of determination and out of money. Football ain't cheap: practice time is $640 per week; renting the stadium for a home game is over $1,000 (not counting the cost of police detail, officials, etc.); renting a bus to get to an away game runs around $4,500. This is money we simply don't have.
If you've been able to watch any of our games this season, you already know why we can't stop now. Playing football means so much to us for so very many reasons, and we are determined to do whatever we can to make that happen. As such, we have compiled the donation "rewards" below, both to hopefully motivate people to help us in this last stretch but also to show how incredibly grateful we are for your support.
So please choose a reward level if you can and make your donation — and then come see what you're helping to make happen when we take on the Chicago Force in our last home game of the season on July 11th!
Thank you again (and again),

P.S. When you donate, you may be asked for your mailing address even if the reward you chose doesn't involve mailing anything. That's because we can't change that setting for different reward levels; we either need to ask everyone for their address or no one. If your reward level does NOT include tangible items, feel free to enter a dummy address (or heck, put in your real one and we might send you something anyway).
