Fundraising
Ideas
Develop
a Budget
You must first figure out how much money you need to run your basketball
club. You have an option of dividing the cost of running your club amongst
the number of players on your team. If you want to supplement the amount
of money the players are responsible to contribute or if you do not want
the players to contribute any money then you must do one of the following
action points.
Get
a Sponsor
Find a local business or person in your area that would like to sponsor
your team either with money or merchandise.
Solicit
Donations
Your first step in this process is to visit www.aausports.org
and get a Club Level 3 membership. Selecting a Club Level 3 membership
makes your club a subordinate under the AAU’s Group exemption program,
making the entity a tax-exempt organization. Level 3 Clubs are eligible
to accept tax-exempt donations directly.
Host
a Tournament
Hosting a tournament can give your club an opportunity to raise money
for your team.
