The Kingston Grenadiers/Jr Gaels Football Club is a member of the Play! Charitable Gaming Association (PCGA) fundraising program, a fundraising initiative under the Ontario Charitable Gaming Association (OCGA) in partnership with the City of Kingston.
With the support of our amazing volunteers, the Bingo Fundraising Initiative brings in thousands of dollars each month so our organization can continue to provide AAA football programing in the Ontario Summer Football League. In addition to learning, playing and enjoying football, emphasis is always be placed on sportsmanship, self-discipline, teamwork, academic achievement and community involvement. The football club will continue to strive to provide a positive and safe experience for every athlete and to promote fair play and sportsmanship by providing a program emphasizing enhancement of discipline, good character and citizenship.
Proceeds raised through the Bingo program help to cover the gap in funding for things like field rentals, player transportation, acquiring equipment and technology necessary to ensure player safety and uniform costs that allow us to remain accessible to players of all walks of life. Thanks to contributions made through the Bingo program, we can focus on providing quality programs that help improve the lives of young athletes in the communities we serve.
We are currently looking for volunteers to help support the Bingo Fundraising Initiative!
Are you passionate about youth, football and academic success? Are you looking for a way to make a difference in the community? For as little as 2 hours and 15 minutes of your time each month, you can help support our football programs.
