I cannot tell you how grateful that I — and the entire Villanova Soccer Academy family — am for your amazing outpouring of support for our fundraising raffle to help fund scholarships so players could be able to join the team for the now-underway 2021-2022.
Because of you, we were able to provide six full or partial scholarships. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Between donations and raffle-ticket purchases, the team raised well beyond my initial goal of $5,000, which will help fund those scholarships and add a tournament or two to the calendar. (We also bought a team bench with the donations!)
The list of sponsors is long, but since you are all part of the Roma family now, I wanted to should each and every one of you out. (I apologize if I missed anybody; please let me know so I can add you to the ring of honor. I only kept a running list of those I sold raffle tickets to.)
