When are pledges due? Captains will collect donations from team members the day of the Bowl­A­Thon (December 10th). Team Captains are responsible for submitting donations to the UY representative at the Registration table.

What if I receive money after the event? If you receive donations after the event we will still accept them. Please give late donations to your team captain, or to Niall Murton at the University YMCA.

Can you accept Company Matching Gift Program? Absolutely! Complete the required paperwork for your company and then contact Niall Murton at niall.murton@ymcatwincities.org for the YMCA form, then the matching gift will be counted towards your total pledge.
