CRSA Flood Relief and Recovery Fund
CRSA has partnered with the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation
(GCRCF) to develop a special fund to help local flood victims. To date,CRSA has raised funds through several Club-sponsored events (camps, clinics, our anniversary celebration, Chicago
Fire bus trip, etc.). These donations have been supplemented by the generosity of players and their families through personal donations.
Many flood victims remain unemployed and/or displaced from their homes. Even a small donation
can make a big difference. Please consider making a tax deductible contribution to the CRSA flood relief and recovery fund through the GCRCF.
Checks should be written to GCRCF with “CRSA Flood Fund” noted on the memo.
For more information about the CRSA flood relief and recovery fund and the GCRCF please visit www.gcrcf.org/
