Fundraising Requirements
Each swimmer is responsible for raising $100 with any remaining balance applied to the swimmer’s TU account. Many swimmers find using the TU Website/Corporate Matching really helpful in exceeding their fundraising goal.
Is my contribution tax deductible?
Yes, SOCAL AQUATICS is a non-profit organization. Our tax ID is 33-0549700.
How do we raise money for Splash-a-Thon?
• Team Unify Donation Website – We will continue to use TU Money to set up personal fundraising web pages. You can send your page link to family and friends via email, Facebook, and Twitter. Then watch the donations roll in!
• Envelope Collections – We are going “Contactless” and will not be distributing Collection Envelopes for Checks or Cash this year. All donations can be submitted online and securely through our website. If you are unsure how to enter a check donation, please email waysandmeans@socalaquatics.com.
• Corporate Matching – Matching Gift Programs are charitable giving programs set up by corporations in which the company matches donations made by employees to eligible nonprofit organizations. For example, if a donor works for Bank of America and donates $250 to a nonprofit organization, Bank of America will then match the donation and write a check for $250 to the same organization.
Note: This process can take several weeks depending upon the corporation. Contact your employer or email waysandmeans@socalaquatics.com for help setting up corporate matching.
