This is a two-week reminder for the Anniversary Tournament (more info below), and we are still requesting donations or memberships. There was a good initial rally, raising $2500 (half way to the $5000 goal) in memberships, $100 donations to get a coffee cup 😊, and corporate matching.
This is our annual request for donations and support for SGC to have enough funds for operations and to demonstrate public support to keep our 501c3 Public Charity status. This status is the gold standard of non-profits and allows us to seek contributions from critical sources we otherwise could not receive, such as corporate matching grants.
