Dear Fans,
I am a student-athlete on the Pioneer men’s basketball team and I’m writing today to request your support for our basketball program and me. Our budget only covers our program’s basic needs. Any additional expenses must be raised by the student-athlete and coaches through fundraising.
We are required to raise 100 percent of the money for our annual holiday trip as well as additional program cost. During this trip, we will face some of the nation’s top NCAA Division III men’s basketball teams. Facing these teams will ready us for the WIAC Conference season.
In order to raise money for our program, my teammates and I will be having a Free Throw-a-Thon. I am asking for your assistance by sponsoring me in this event. For the Free Throw-a-Thon, each player on our team will be shooting 100 free throws. You may pledge any amount per free throw or simply give a flat donation. (For example, if you donate 25 cents per free throw made your donation would be $18.75 if I make 75 of 100, etc.) Every donation, regardless of the amount, is greatly appreciated.
If you are interested in helping me with a flat donation or a pledge per free throw, you can visit https://letsgopioneers.com//sports/mbkb/FT-A-Thon to make your donation online by December 15, 2023. If you are pledging per free throw, we will send you an invoice after we have shot our free throws. If you would prefer to pay via check in the mail, please us the address listed below. Please note that your donation to the UW-Platteville Men’s Basketball program is tax deductible.
My teammates, coaches, and I sincerely appreciate your support and look forward to seeing you at our games this season. For additional information about the UW-Platteville basketball program, including printable game schedules and “live webcasting” of home events, visit us online at www.letsgopioneers.com.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call Head Coach Jeff Gard at (608) 342-1278.
Sincerely,
Pioneer Men’s Basketball
