100% HOME RUN

March 05, 2020

We did it! Thanks to all of the support and generosity we have received from all our donors, we have finally reached our goal! We are thrilled to announce we officially now have enough money to afford new game balls, first-aid supplies, umpires, AND an indoor space to host our tournament! We will now be able to invite three other collegiate club softball teams to participate in our second annual indoor tournament. None of this would have been possible without your gifts, so we want to thank you again! We greatly appreciate the difference you have made for our club softball program.

LAST DAY to give!

March 05, 2020

We want a rally, rally, rally!  One day left to donate! 

 

It’s your last chance to donate if you'd like to help NU Club Softball cover the costs of hosting our second annual indoor tournament! TODAY is the last day!!! At this point, we are still $440 short of our goal. Please help us reach it by spreading the word to donate now. Thank you so much!!!

 

75% The home stretch

February 29, 2020

We are so close! We have now officially reached 75% of our goal! We can’t say thank you enough to all those who have given. We previously were able to purchase new game balls, first-aid kits, and umpires for the tournament, and now, after reaching the 75% mark, we can almost fully pay for the local indoor fields on which we will be hosting our tournament. The finish line is finally in sight! We hope to have your continued support as we are now in the home stretch. Thank you!

Halfway there!

February 25, 2020

We have reached (a little past) the halfway point! This is enough money to cover umpires for all six of our planned games within the tournament. Once again, we want to stress how thankful we are for all of our donors. Your support will have a lasting impact on NU Club Softball for years to come. But, similarly to a tied-game in the bottom of the third inning, we can’t lose steam! So please keep sharing our project and our cause to help us pull ahead. Thank you so much!

40% We’ve got a good lead off!

February 13, 2020

Thank you to everyone who has already contributed to our fundraising campaign! We are happy to say, we have now reached 40% of our goal. We greatly appreciate each and every gift, no matter how big or small, and can assure you it will positively impact our team, now and in the future. With the amount of money we have already raised, we will be able to purchase game balls and first-aid kits for our second annual tournament. However, you can’t host a tournament with Band-Aids and softballs alone, therefore we still have a ways to go. Please help us spread the word so we can continue to inch toward our goal! Thank you!

 

A Strong Start!

February 13, 2020

We want to say a huge thank you to all who have donated to our campaign thus far. We have a great lead off! Every donation impacts our team and helps bring us closer to reaching our goal of $3,500. We are ecstatic to use these generous donations to host NU Club Softball’s second annual winter tournament. Here we'll invite other collegiate club softball teams for a fun and competitive night’s worth of games, but first we need your help raising money for umpires, fields, and first-aid materials. Any additional funds would be put toward additional team equipment and gear. Please pass along the details of our campaign to anyone you think may be interested in supporting our project (such as a fellow softball-lover or Northwestern alum). Thank you again for your help!
