Things businesses do
Pick one, combine them, or describe something we have not thought of.
Fundraiser nightYou give a share of one evening's sales to a team fund. We promote the night across the county, tag the school, and post the total afterward.
Split the tabA percentage of every check on a set night goes to the fund. Easy for restaurants and bars, no upfront cost.
Sports nightShow the Friday game or a county rivalry at your place. We put it on the schedule and send people your way.
Annual scholarshipThe goal is one county-wide award each year to a Nassau student athlete, funded by local businesses. Nothing is being collected yet and no structure is settled — tell us if this is something you would back and it helps us decide how to set it up properly.
Where this stands today. We are not set up to collect money yet, and the scholarship above is an intention rather than a programme — there is no fund, no application and no award date. Money for a scholarship has to be held and awarded by a registered nonprofit, so if there is appetite for it we will set it up through one properly before a dollar changes hands. What we can do right now is plan with you, put a date on the calendar, and be ready when we are. Tell us what you have in mind and we will tell you honestly what is and is not possible this season.

Press send and it reaches us directly. A person reads every one.
