Holy Resurrection Brookville will host its 1st ANNUAL Hoop-A-Thon on March 25th, 2023!
Our Children have joined the effort in fundraising for our Church's Expansion Project! This project will double the size of our Fellowship hall, add four new classrooms, and build a brand-new state of the art Athletic Center.
The impact of the project is monumental in the life of our parish and its youth as we look to provide a space for them to grow in the love of Christ and forge friendships rooted in our faith and culture.
What's a Hoop-A-Thon?
Great Question! A Hoop-A-Thon is a special and dynamic fundraiser where participants shoot hoops and raise money for each shot they make through the generous donations of their sponsors. Simply put, The more baskets made, the more money raised, and the more sponsors, the more the value of each basket.
How does it work?
During the event, each participating athlete will shoot a total of 75 baskets (50 free throws + 25 3-pointers).
The value of each basket depends on the fundraising efforts of each individual. To participate, athletes MUST be sponsored. The more sponsors a participant has, the more each basket will be worth.
Who can be a sponsor?
Anyone can be a sponsor.
We encourage our participants to outreach and ask anyone they wish. They can ask family, friends, or even their favorite restaurants or local business for a sponsorship.
All the sponsor has to do then is find their player's name on the GivingZone.com website, and make a pledge to either sponsor each made basket, or give a general donation.
Guidelines for Athletes:
Boys and Girls ages 7-18
Athletes ages 7-10 yrs old will only be participating in the free-throw contests.
Coaches of our teams are invited to join as well as our fellow Clergy!
Father Panteleimon will be participating in a half-court shot competition starting at $10 per shot!
For Friends of Holy Resurrection: if you wish to participate and compete, please email hoops4hr@resurrectionbrookville.org with the name, parish, and age, please.
You can PLEDGE anything from $2 to $10 dollars per basket made or make a one-time DONATION.
Completing this project will be absolutely life-changing for our children and community. We need your love and support to help us finish the job and build a brighter tomorrow for our parish.
Please help us reach our goal and sponsor your loved ones!
