mercer island boys soccer booster club
What is the Mercer Island Boys Soccer Booster Club?
We are a separate entity from the ASB. We are a 501c3 made up of volunteers. We are a volunteer organization that oversees team finances and assists the Coach / team members and families with communication, event planning, program coordination and logistics. We exist to promote and supplement the MIHS Boys Soccer program by providing opportunities to build community, support coaches, and provide gear and equipment that our teams would otherwise go without.
How do you raise money?
Our primary source of raising money is through our annual ask at the beginning of the season.
For the 2024 season, all team members are requested to pay the Booster Fee of $250 per player.
MI Boys soccer historically had held a fall and an in-season fund raiser to help build reserves as we look to replace/update equipment. Our fall fundraiser raised just over $5000 which we used to buy the movable goal on the upper grass pitch and replace missing gear. Thank you to everyone who donated!
This Spring we have the following fundraising activities:
-
Mother’s day flowers – pre-selling bouquets and the boys will deliver the weekend before Mother’s day
-
Of course we gladly take donations as well. All donations are tax-deductible. If your company matches your charitable donations, please remember to submit your support of MIBSBC
What do these funds go towards?
Great question! While we are fortunate to reside in such a place as Mercer Island, there are many areas that tax dollars just don't cover!
