St. Paul, Minn. – November 11, 2019 – The Champions Amateur Football League today announced it will partner with nonprofit organization GiveMN to participate in Give to the Max Day, Minnesota’s homegrown giving holiday, on Thursday, Nov. 14. The annual 24-hour online fundraiser, now in its 11th year, has raised more than $170 million for more than 10,000 Minnesota-based causes. Donors can visit GiveMN.org to find a cause they care about, and donate anytime from November 1 to 14.

The Champions Amateur Football League will be hosting an online fundraiser and recognize all our donors on our social media page.  The CAFL will also be awarding prizes including season tickets to all games played in 2020, a personal tour during one of the games and access to the media box at a select league game, or signed memorabilia.

“We are very excited to be selected to participate in the Give to the Max Day to help provide more opportunities to our players and the teams in our league” said Kimberly Johnson, (acting) Vice President of the Champions Amateur Football League. “All donations from this campaign will go directly to helping players reach their goals of extending their football careers.”

In addition, GiveMN and its partners will award $100,000 in prizes to nonprofits and schools through Golden Ticket drawings. Event organizers work with funders and partners each year to plan Give to the Max Day as a celebration of the important work nonprofits and schools do in Minnesota communities.

“Give to the Max Day has become the Minnesota giving holiday for the past ten years,” said Jake Blumberg, executive director of GiveMN. “For 24 hours, thousands of organizations and individuals rally to support amazing and important causes that make Minnesota a great place to live, work and play.”
