Rapids Youth Soccer Fundraising Activities

Team fundraisers are allowed to help offset team expenses. The information below applies any time that the CRYSC name, and/or the club’s tax identification number, is used. Team fundraisers should be offered to all players on a team but players are not required to participate. Examples of fundraising activities include Chipotle/Chick-fil-a promotions, food sales, and car washes. Team Treasurers should notify the Regional Manager any time that the club’s name or tax identification number is required. Due to contractual terms, the CRYSC logo should not be printed on shirts, hats, etc for team fundraisers. All funds raised through team fundraising should be run through the team account and used to pay for organizational soccer expenses as listed below.

Grocery Rebate | Scrip Programs

These programs are very beneficial for CRYSC members.  The rewards can be used to help offset soccer fees. Rebates are first paid to members’ registration fees to help reduce the amount owed.  Once the registration fees are paid the fees can be used for the player’s team account.  Members can use these rebates in their player’s account for soccer-related activities such as camps, tournaments, travel, and uniforms. Please note, that the rebates that are sent to the team only go to the participating player and are not divided among the team. Your rewards are yours and for your player(s) only.

The participating programs are King Soopers and Raise Right, which work with many companies, including Safeway. With these programs, the companies donate a portion of the rewards to our Club, which lets us pass on a savings percentage to our membership. The Club keeps a small amount to run the programs and donates it to the CRYSC scholarship fund to assist players who would otherwise be unable to play soccer. 

If you are interested in participating in a grocery program you can email the CRYSC Fundrasing Coordinator, Patty George, at [email protected] with the following information:

• Your name, your player’s name and team they are on including Central, Castle Rock, Elite, Fort Collins, North or South region.

If you ever have any questions or need more information regarding these programs, you can email Patty George at [email protected]. Patty is here to help members earn the most they can to help offset soccer fees using the King Soopers and Raise Right programs.

Bingo Fundraising

CRYSC offers members the opportunity to work at one of two bingo halls in support of reducing club operation expenses. CRYSC is allowed to conduct bingo sessions due to our non-profit status with the IRS. Any money earned from bingo can only be used for expenses in support of the nonprofit.

CRYSC hosts multiple bingo sessions throughout the week. Details regarding the location of the Bingo halls, session times and details on who to contact to sign up are located below.

All funds raised through bingo are kept within the club’s registration system and applied towards organizational soccer expenses.

Bingo takes place at Barry’s Bingo and The Bingo Co. listed on the map below.

Using Fundraising Money

Funds raised through club fundraising programs are credited at the team level on a tax-free basis. Therefore, no fundraising money will be paid directly to families. All money must run through the organization’s club and team accounts.
