Thanksgiving Brigade
5 November, 2022
LOCAL BUSINESSES! WE ARE LOOKING FOR KICK-A-THON PLEDGES/SPONSORS FOR OUR THANKSGIVING MEAL BRIGADE!
For the past 4 years, our Academy has partnered with and raised money for the Community Food Bank of San Benito County to feed local families who cannot afford it, a full Thanksgiving Meal.
We do this by holding a fundraising Kick-a Thon a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving, where our students collect pledges from families, friends, local businesses, etc. for them to participate by doing 540 kicks within an hour and a half. We then volunteer at the food bank the weekend prior to Thanksgiving to hand out the food that we helped raise money for to the families.
Our goal this year is $5000, which will feed just over 80 families. As a martial arts school we know this is easily attainable, but with community involvement we can exceed that goal and feed even more families!
If you are a local business and would like to sponsor our event, it would greatly be appreciated toward our goal and it would be tax-deductible as the Community Food Bank is a 501c3 non-profit organization.
We will mention you and post your business logo with our gratitude on our website, as well as all social media posts.
