Dear Akron City FC Fans, Local Businesses and Members of the Akron Community,
We hope this letter finds you sharing in the excitement and passion that surrounds the beautiful game of soccer in our beloved city this winter. Founded in 2022, Akron City FC now has two seasons in the books and as we head into our third this May, we wanted to reach out to you with our biggest initiative yet! The foundation of something great has been laid, now it is time to take it to the next level.
Akron City FC is a proud representative of lower league soccer in the United States. We play at a high level, the NPSL is the only lower national league to receive Tier 1 status from the USASA. Every day we are inspired by our fans’ enthusiasm and are committed to continuing to bring the highest quality experiences to our players, coaching staff, dedicated fans and esteemed sponsors. The growth of the game, both locally and nationally, is here at the grassroots level, where a team’s bond to it’s community is tighter than ever.
However, despite the positive momentum generated over the past two years, a team operating in the lower leagues of the US Soccer pyramid face many challenges. The path to financial stability at this level is a determined grind, a test of our resolve and community spirit. We embrace this journey, knowing that each challenge overcome is a victory for us all.
To continue our mission to grow the game in Akron and provide the highest level of services and experiences, we are excited to announce the Akron City FC Envelope Fundraiser. This initiative is a call to arms, reaching out to you – our dedicated fan base and the broader Akron community – to help us sustain and elevate the environment we have created for our players and for you, our fans, through the matchday experiences that we have all come to love.
Here’s how it works:
– Pick an Envelope below, we will number envelopes from 1-500, each representing a monetary value in dollars.
– Select the envelope for the amount you wish to give and you will be prompted with payment instructions.
– Each $100 tier unlocks more Akron City FC incentives, the higher amounts include very attractive and affordable sponsorship opportunities (don’t forget to add your business information in the submissions so we can contact you about activating on this sponsorship!).
– 5% of every donation will go to our Supporter’s Group, The Rubber City Underground, to help fund their mission of making the game accessible to all.
– Be Part of the Legacy! By participating, you become an integral part of our journey, laying the foundation for a future where Akron City FC stands tall amongst the giants!
This is more than a fundraiser; it’s a testament to our collective will to see Akron City FC thrive. We are more than a team; we are a family, united by our love for soccer and our city.
We truly appreciated your generous consideration to donate to Akron City FC, especially during these somewhat challenging economic times. We know there are MANY worthy causes competing for your support and your willingness to contribute means the world to us!
With heartfelt thanks,
Nick Turchan
