Fundraising
Why Do We Fundraise?
The MCYHA is a non-profit organization that fundraises each year to help cover numerous costs during the season. Together, the MCYHA and MCFSA pay over $100,000 to lease the Manitowoc County Ice Center from Manitowoc County for 5 months. In addition to the cost of the lease, we are also responsible for maintaining and replacing any equipment that needs repair throughout the season.
How Much Do We Need to Raise?
In order to cover the costs, a fundraising effort is expected of all member families.
Note that the requirement is based on the team level of the oldest player in that family. The requirements are:
- For 6U (Mini-Mite) families: $150
- For 8U-14U families: $350
Based on the actual budget, a buyout option is available for families that can be paid as part of the player registration process. Families can buyout 25%, 50% or 100% of their fundraising goal at this time. If the buyout is not chosen, then fundraising efforts made by families are credited to their accounts after each fundraising session. Updated totals for each family are posted to each team throughout the season.
