Little League receives funding from unusual source

[Bubba1]

Considering how much we have to pay here for Dar to play football (and CA is much, much, much more expensive) I'm guessing it is well over $100 and closer to $200. For some people, that absolutely is a stretch on an already stretched budget. FWIW, in the future, I would advise the club to make any further donations anonymously. Problem solved.

I would think the reason most businesses donate to kid sports leagues is to make it known they support such causes to generate business. I don;t see anonymous donations as a general problem solved as that defeats the purpose of the donation in the first place. The fact this strip bar owner did it is admirable but is likely an exception. If the strip club is legit, and there are plenty of legit ones around, I see it as no worse than having a wine/spirits store sponsor. It's not like the kids are being offered lap dances or beer discounts.

And if league parents are that uncomfortable seeing "Jesda's Tittie Bar" on the back of a 12 yr old's uniform, one could simply request to have the name read "Jesda's".

I bet this team has hotter cheerleaders.

They said they did it to support the community. Likewise, when I donate to a cause, I might get a thank you letter but I dont require my name to be plastered on a banner, at least if my intent is to only lend support.

Way to get that tax write off.
Depending on the area, the league could be waiving most of the fees to play because the local families are too poor to afford after school activities in the first place. This 100% benefits the local community and if a "legitimate" charity like a church or rotary club gave a crap, they would have been on the news for writing that check and makin those kids smile like strippers on (my) payday.

On a side note, I would gladly be a patron to any "Jesda's" locations iny area.
