What if enough money isn’t raised?

How much should I donate?
What ever you feel comfortable. We put ourselves in this once in a life time scenario. Could you take a month off of work? Use your savings?

Can I donate to one player?
No. The gross amount collected will be allotted equally between each jersy number. Receipts for expenses will be submitted towards that jersy number until funds are depleted. It is the fair and ethical way to assure the team as a whole is supported. The financial oversight team will assure all funds are used towards travel, lodging, per diem of the respective jersey number account.
