Matching Grant by Dick's Sporting Goods to Keep JV Going

A matching grant is available for Hamilton JV Sports, with five weeks to raise $4,089. 5% funded as of April 17th. Hamilton Emerald Knights - Sports Matter
This team will only receive The DICK'S Sporting Goods Foundation matching grant if at least $4,089 is pledged by Friday, May 23rd 6:00pm ET.
Hamilton Central School has a long, proud history of providing enriching extracurricular opportunities for its students. This has historically included athletic activities at the modified, junior varsity, and varsity levels when participation numbers warranted all three. However, JV sports have not been a part of the overall school budget for the last three years. The athletic budget itself has been cut by approximately $50,000 over the course of the last six years. For the past three years, we have been fortunate to receive donations to keep our JV programs running. Budget constraints are an issue again in the upcoming year and we are asking for your help to keep these opportunities for our student athletes.
