Springfield, MA law firm Raipher, P.C. challenges local Western-Massachusetts businesses to join in their support of the Holyoke Youth Football (“HYF”) team, declaring it will match financial donations up to $3,000.
Springfield, United States - October 5, 2019 /PressCable/ —
Raipher, P.C. recently became the premier sponsor of the Holyoke Youth Football (“HYF”) organization. After providing the entire team with new uniform jerseys, the firm is now challenging local businesses and organizations to join in its effort to help support the funding of the team’s activities, with an incentive to match donations up to $3,000.
In the recent past, Raipher, P.C. has welcomed local initiatives and events that aim to further integrate youths from all types of social backgrounds, such as the Fresh Paint Springfield program. The current initiative aims at raising financial support for youth sports programs in lower-income communities that “do not receive the level of financial support available in higher-income areas in the region,” states the firm’s letter to local businesses asking for support. Ultimately, such initiatives contribute to help youth focus their energy on positive activities, learn important lessons about teamwork and being part of an organization, and give them a sense of identity within their community, regardless of their social backgrounds.
“Youth sports programs are an important facet of any community, I’m thrilled to be doing our part to help the Holyoke Youth Football teams thrive,” says Raipher D. Pellegrino, Managing Partner of Springfield law firm Raipher, P.C.. “Being part of a youth sports organization can be a life-changing experience for kids, families, and communities. I am honored to help support the HYF players and organization to be their best.”
To further help support the HYF’s 120 youth athletes, and accelerate funding of the organization’s sport activities by other local businesses, Raipher, P.C. committed to match all donations up to $3,000.
Raipher, PC has already received support from the PeoplesBank in Holyoke and hence will match their generous $500 donation to the HYF organization. “When we invest in youth, everybody wins,” says Pellegrino. “That’s why we’re working with HYF to help the Purple Knights do their best.”
Beyond the financial support request to local businesses through donations, local residents and the community can show their support for the team by volunteering at one of the 2 home games left this season, starting this Saturday, October 5, 2019.
