I am trying to consider the value of a boosters club. We established one last November and have had a lot of confusion on the rules of a 501 (c). We are experiencing similar problems as many other boosters, you have a handful of families doing all the work but plenty of parents with their hands out, so we were trying to find a way to earn funding without putting so much pressure on a set few who continuously give their time and money. To help with this we decided to do sponsorship and so far have two sponsors but now the gym has sent out booster email out to the entire gym and said that every team member will profit from this.
If the sponsorship is given to a non-profit why don't the booster families profit from it. To me, it reduces the value of a booster club. Why pay into boosters if you gain the funds either way.
