Graduation Speech: Asbury Park American Youth Football (AYF)
We would like to “thank you” for your $1500 donation of last year. Your donation went towards insurance and purchasing of safety equipment. This is our second year participating in Jersey Shore AYF. As you know, we are youth football organization here in the city. We formed our charter last year, and we are known as Asbury Park American Youth Football (AFY) association. We participate within the largest league in the shore as well as New Jersey. We have roughly about 90 boys and girls participating in football & cheer among three (3) teams: Mighty-Mites, Cadets, and Jr. Peewees. We practice and play our home games at the high school stadium.
We want to provide the best possible experience for our participants. Unfortunately, our parent
base cannot afford to pay for a fully equipped player which is around $250. The Asbury Park community is one of the poorest in the state regardless of how beautiful it is to live in Asbury Park and the decent character of our parents and children.
Only with a $40 registration fee, we must make-up the difference between the registration fee and cost to equip players. Therefore, we are requesting a donation at the same level (if possible) of last year to help us with those required items and insurance. We are a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) organization (31-1484747) and have an EIN (47-4250230).
If you should need additional information from or about us, please let me know (732-904-3916).
