All American Football League Launches Innovative Fundraising Program Linked to Ticket Sales

February 9, 2008 - All American Football League (AAFL) News Release


ATLANTA, GA -- The All American Football League (AAFL) launched an innovative program today that links ticket sales to fundraising efforts for youth, school, charitable and church groups.

During the month of February, the AAFL will allow organizations to purchase or sell tickets to games, with a 15% commission on all sales to be used toward their fundraising efforts.

The AAFL ticket commission program provides a fun, exciting way for organizations to raise much-needed funds. Local youth groups have already provided feedback that their kids have never been so motivated to participate in a fundraiser.

Team Arkansas Storm Relief Efforts:

Head Coach Ron Calcagni and President Alicia Cooper, along with QB Clint Stoerner and RB Chrys Chukwuma of Team Arkansas were present at the Annual Hamburg (AR) Regional Chamber of Commerce Banquet yesterday evening. The event was held at the Hamburg Junior High School, which sustained damage in the Tuesday night tornadoes.

The Hamburg Chamber is prepared to be involved in the AAFL's ticket sales program, as is the Hamburg school district, with the plan that they will use the funds raised to help with school repairs.

Team Arkansas is recruiting additional organizations to participate in the effort, so that commissions from ticket sales can be allocated for community needs, including donations, cleanup and repairs.

Organizations wishing to participate in Team Arkansas' storm relief efforts can contact Stephen Bright, Director of Business Development at stephen.bright@aafl.com.

Fundraising Information:

Organizations interested in participating in the AAFL program for their own fundraising efforts can send an email to fundraising@aafl.com or call 877.286.3248 toll free.
