NY Empire FC Launches Fundraising Campaign For Spain with Snap! Raise.

As we shared at the parent meeting, NY Empire FC is excited to officially launch our partnership with Snap! Raise.

Snap! Raise will be our dedicated platform for each player to host their own fundraising campaign — a planned and strategic initiative to help make our trip to the 2026 Donosti Cup in San Sebastián, Spain, more affordable for every player and family.

Snap! Raise is the nation’s #1 online fundraising platform and has helped hundreds of thousands of programs raise over $1 billion. With Snap! Raise, every player will have their own personalized profile page to share their story and collect support from friends, family, and community members.

Here’s what makes this campaign exciting:

• Individual Player Pages: Each player will have their own page to share why this trip is meaningful to them.
  

• Raffle Incentive: For every $100 donated, supporters receive a raffle ticket for a chance to win over $10,000 worth of prizes generously provided by our Sponsors.
  

• Direct Impact: After fees, 90% of every donation goes directly toward the player’s trip cost — making this one of the most efficient ways to fundraise.
  

This is not just about raising money — it’s about giving our players the chance to tell their story, inspire their communities, and take ownership of this unforgettable experience. We can’t wait to see the creativity and support this campaign generates across the Empire family.
