The Tidewater Wolves Football and Cheerleading League
(TWFCL) is a local recreational non-profit youth organization that participates
in athletic events sanctioned by the Peninsula Youth Football and Cheerleading
Organization (PYFCO). We are committed to developing excellence in individual
and team performance through a consistent and comprehensive approach to player
and team development; striving to offer a challenging, competitive and
educational program emphasizing the importance of community, honesty, integrity
and other life lessons/values through sports. We believe that athletic programs
provide opportunities for youth to participate in teambuilding, sportsmanship,
and citizenship activities, but in order to continue our mission we request
your assistance funding various player needs. Our organization strives to prevent
traumatic brain and spinal cord injury by providing, recondioning,
recertifying protective equipment to our registered players, ensuring safety.
To elaborate, in preparation for the previous seasons, we send our helmets to
Riddell for recertification, or refurbishment and not all of them were
approved. We are looking at either
refurbishing or replacing several helmets and other football gear for our teams
of over 150 children. Regardless the
amount, any donation made by your business will result in your organizations
information, being advertised on our website, as well as announced during home
game half time. We humbly appreciate any level of support or donation you can
make.
A key success factor in this equation is our partnerships
with leading companies, communities, and organizations such as yours. Thank you for your commitment to
support our organization.
Greetings
from Hampton Roads! Our 501 (c) (3) charity organization, the Tidewater Wolves
Football and Cheerleading League (TWFCL) is a local recreational non-profit
youth organization that participates in athletic events sanctioned by the
Peninsula Youth Football and Cheerleading Organization (PYFCO). We are
committed to developing excellence in individual and team performance through a
consistent and comprehensive approach to player and team development; striving
to offer a challenging, competitive and educational program emphasizing the
importance of community, honesty, integrity and other life lessons/values
through sports. We believe that athletic programs provide opportunities for
youth to participate in teambuilding, sportsmanship, and citizenship activities,
but in order to continue our mission we request your assistance funding various
player needs.
Our organization strives to
prevent traumatic brain and spinal cord injury by providing, reconditioning, or
recertifying protective equipment to our registered players, ensuring safety. As a charity Tidewater Wolves Board of
Directors, coaches, and staff are all volunteers; but game officials, field and
player insurance, league administration fees and licensing are not. Even our
lighting expenses are quite substantial, exceeding $1,500 per season.
In truthfulness, any donation
which could be applied to equipment would be greatly appreciated; however, we
are seeking specific assistance in providing Gatorade or a like substance to
our players. We typically have four-three gallon coolers and one five gallon
cooler at practice, five days a week. We pride ourselves on working with
partners so that no single entity is expected to bear the entire cost. We ask
only for what you are willing to provide.
As a 501(c) (3) tax exempt
organization your donation may be listed as a charitable contribution, pursuant
to any state and federal guidelines. Provided is a link to our teams
information on Charity Navigator, which contains our EIN (http://www.charitynavigator.org/index.cfm?bay=search.profile&ein=541972384) Regardless
the amount, any donation made by your business will result in your organizations

half time. We humbly appreciate any level of support or donation you can make.
