FUNDRAISING
The Leaning Tower YMCA Sharks Swim Team is a program of the Leaning Tower YMCA which
is a non-profit organization. The YMCA relies on Fundraising monies to support programs,
membership and scholarships. Throughout the season the swim team will do fundraising events to
help support the YMCA and the swim team. Fundraising monies will be used for; rooms for
coaches at State and Midwest Regionals, ribbons for meets, office supplies, training equipment,
meet expenses, scholarships for the Y and the team, timing equipment, pool equipment and general
support of the swim team.
There is not a fundraising dollar amount required for each swimmer, but there is a requirement for
each swimmer and family to participate in all of the fundraisers the team does. When everyone
participates, then the team is able to raise the funds necessary.
