Let’s Get the Durham Eagles to a National Championship - Eat Mor Chickn!
10% of Sales at the RTP Chick Fil A will support the Eagles in November. Just be sure to give them this card with your order!
We are very proud of the Durham Iron Eagles! We are trying to support these young men in their quest for a Regional and a National Championship for Pop Warner Football. In these tight economic times our fundraising efforts are very important to help these young men achieve their goals. We are appealing to you for financial assistance.
Our most urgent need is to help these young men travel for their playoff games. We will have one playoff game in Garner, NC, which will not require travel funds, but we will also play in Charlotte, North Carolina over Thanksgiving weekend and this will require an overnight stay. Hotel rooms are about $100 each, and we will need 14 rooms to house our team and coaches. We will need to feed the team lunch and dinner on Friday, as well as breakfast and lunch on Saturday. The total cost of the trip will run around $2000.
We are hoping to have a much more significant need, the National Championships in Orlando, Florida. If we are fortunate enough to win our Regional playoff game in Charlotte, we will be travelling to the ESPN Wide World of Sports at Disney for a nine day trip in December to compete in the Super Bowl for Pop Warner. This trip has been estimated to cost $40,000 for a team of our size! Yes, $40,000. We know getting corporations and sponsors involved will be necessary, but we are also looking to friends and family to help us reach our goal.
Any amount of financial assistance will be greatly appreciated!
If you are able to help us financially, please make checks payable to: Durham Eagles Athletic Association. We are a non-profit organization and will be happy to mail you a receipt with our tax ID number on it for you tax records. You can email Bill Stevenson with questions at whs2@alumni.duke.edu.
Regardless of whether or not you are able to help us financially, we would love to have you attend one of our football games.
Thank you for your support of the Durham Iron Eagles.
Sincerely,
Durham Iron Eagles players and coaches
