Online Fundraisers
Roller Derby is an amazing sport, but it can be expensive to participate—every skater needs not only skates, but a helmet, elbow and knee pads, wrist guards, a mouth guard, and WFTDA insurance. Skates alone require extra wheels, toe stops, and regular maintenance to keep them in tip-top shape. The league as a whole has expenses, too—renting venues, printing posters and programs, and securing lodging for away games, to name a few.
Whether you love roller derby or simply want to support a local 501(c)3 non-profit organization, participating in these fundraisers is a great way to give back to our community and get a big bang for your buck!
Dave & Buster’s
If you enjoy gaming in a fun atmosphere with food and drinks, Dave & Buster’s is the place to go—and buying a rechargeable Power Card is the best way to do it! These cards let you skip the line and rack up loyalty points, which you can put toward D&B’s delicious food and “bevs.”
