Dear Member/Supporter
In the present economic climate all clubs are finding it difficult to raise the finance necessary to maintain club facilities. Young Munster is no exception to this trend. Traditional fund raising events are not as successful as they were in the past, gate receipts have fallen and some long time contributors are no longer in a position to support us to the extent that they have in the past.
In an attempt to secure sufficient funds to meet our commitments on a year round basis the committee is launching a “200 Club”. This is the norm in a number of clubs throughout the country and has helped clubs to meet on-going expenses such as rates, water, gas and electricity bills. This is especially welcome during the closed season when there is no other income.
Members of the “200 Club” are asked to contribute €20 per month to the club.
Contributors will be entered in a draw for €1,000 at the end of each month and there will be a special bumper draw at Christmas. The first draw will be held at the end of March.
It is hoped that our loyal members and supporters will respond to this appeal in sufficient numbers to ensure its success and the financial stability of the club.
A form will be available to download available on the club website at youngmunster.com will facilitate contributors who wish to pay by standing order.
Those wishing to contribute cash monthly my do so through our promoters and committee members. We are also setting up an online facility to enable our supporters to pay by credit card.
I wish to thank you for your support in the past and hope that you are in a position to and willing to support this vital project.
Yours sincerely,
Jack O’Brien
President
