Now that the teams have been set, it’s time for some good ‘ole Superbowl XLIV football pool action. We are hosting TWO football pools to benefit Team Tiara and Metastatic Breast Cancer- $10/square and $20/square.
Team Tiara is a non-profit organization committed to raising funds for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day event and supporting patients and families affected by Breast Cancer. In 2011, Team Tiara was the #4 top fundraiser for the SGK 3-Day event, provided direct support to more than 20 breast cancer survivors and funded 20 mammograms for women without access to health insurance. Team Tiara has raised over $600,000 since 2006! What an awesome team, committed to raising $250,000 in 2012, $100,000 of which will be for metastatic breast cancer research. Support Team Tiara’s Metastatic Breast Cancer Research Fund. 100% of the funds donated will be used to find the hows and whys and ways to stop metastatic breast cancer. We are a purely volunteer organization. No one takes a salary. All donations are 100% tax-deductible. www.pinktober365.com
So how does this football pool work??
1.) Email Kay Routh (routh6@comcast.net) letting her know that you would like a square (or two). If you would like a particular square (1-100), please include that number. We will let you know if that square is open. If you do not have a preference, please indicate, any square and we will randomly select a square.
2.) Send in your $$ to Kay. This should be cash or a check made payable to CASH or Team Tiara. (this is because we will need to split the funds between the payouts and donations to Team Tiara). If you need a receipt for tax purposes, please include that in your initial email, and a receipt will be emailed to you.
Mail or hand deliver all payments to Kay Routh at 20310 Silverwood Trail, Cypress, TX 77433
All payments must be received before your name will be placed into a square.
3.) Once all of the squares are filled, numbers will be pulled. (How you ask ??? Using a deck of cards, A-10) of one suit will be separated and shuffled. As the cards are flipped one at a time, thoese will be the numbers assigned to the squares. This will be done for the AFC Team and the NFC Team) *Separate numbers will be pulled for the $10 pool and $20 pool.
$10/square = $1,000 collected. $500 will be donated to Team Tiara, $500 will be paid out ($125/quarter – no OT).
$20/square $2,000 collected. $1000 will be donated to Team Tiara, $1000 will be paid out ($250/quarter – no OT).
Squares will sell out fast… so get your square NOW!! Feel free to forward to anyone you feel may be interested. Thanks for considering!!! Please let me know if you have any questions.
