Dear members, sponsors and supporters,
Thank you for being such a passionate member/supporter of our South Croydon Football Club community. Your passion and support help us to keep going.
We are writing to you today because we need your help. You would be aware of plans to redevelop and refurbish the change rooms and social area at Cheong Park with the Federal and State Governments together with Maroondah Council having committed a total of $1.5 million for the revised project.
It remains the responsibility of the building tenants to provide some fixtures and fittings that are not provided under the government funding. Things like a suitable audio/visual/communications system, a new cool room, some kitchen appliances and some furniture items to name a few.
We need to raise funds to allow us to suitably complete the necessary fit out for our club to function and I would respectfully ask that you consider making a donation towards the joint “fit out fund” that we have established in conjunction with our friends at the South Croydon Cricket Club.
To maximise the ‘value’ of donations, we have established a joint fund raising/donation process through the Australian Sports Foundation where, in many cases, donations over $2- become tax deductible for donors with a taxable income.
By making a tax-deductible donation you will help us achieve our goal in providing the best possible facilities for our members.
Please consider making a tax-deductible donation before the 30th June 2021.
The process is simple:
• go to the Australian Sports Foundation website https://sportsfoundation.org.au/
• press on the ‘Donate” button (upper right)
• select “clubs and organisations-explore projects”
• search for “South Croydon Football Club”
• donate! Follow the prompts to complete your donation. Remember to arrange for your receipt to be sent to you so you can arrange that tax-deduction!
• Alternatively you can go directly to https://asf.org.au/donate/cheong-park-redevelopment/ (and avoid all the steps above).
Of course any donations made after 30/6/2021 will be deductible in the next financial year.
Note that the donation site is a joint site between the South Croydon Football and Cricket Clubs with only one name able to be used for the donation process. All funds raised will be jointly administered by the clubs and will only be used to improve the facilities at Cheong Park.
It is planned that major donations will be acknowledged upon completion of the project.
Thank you for reading this correspondence. Any assistance you may be able to provide will be gratefully accepted-it all adds up!
Go Dogs!
Kind Regards
Steve Duke
President
