Larry and Brenda Announce Their Matching Program for Fall, 2012!
“The gifts of each individual mean a lot to these shooting teams, and Brenda and I are committed to helping the kids maximize their fundraising efforts," says Larry Potterfield, Founder and CEO of MidwayUSA, Inc. “For any donation made to a school shooting team here at the MidwayUSA Foundation, [my wife] Brenda and I will gladly match the amount 3:1," he continues.
The matching program will focus on matching each donation 3:1 for the first six months of 2012 (ending June 30, 2012). “This means that if a donor gives a $1,000 donation to his or her scholastic shooting team of choice, Brenda and I will donate an additional $3,000 to that team”, emphasizes Larry. “This is the kind of investment that offers lasting support and helps teams to build their accounts quickly.”
Matching money will be deposited into team accounts once per month, generally within the first week following the month in which the donation is received.

A message from Larry Potterfield, President of the MidwayUSA Foundation, Inc.:
"The Scholastic Shooting Trust Fund was created to raise money for shooting teams for high-schools, colleges, and universities all over America. Over 20,000 schools in total! You can make a tax deductible contribution indicating the school of your preference to receive the benefit of your gift.
Shooting teams of high-schools, colleges, and universities provide wonderful opportunities for students to make friends, to develop confidence, and learn discipline and leadership skills, just like other sports. However, most schools provide little or no funding for shooting teams, so its up to us to help. On our website you will find nearly every high-school, college, and university in America,the contributions received to date, the current active shooting programs for each school, and the anticipated funding for next season events. Your gift is tax deductible and will be invested with the earnings provided each year to the shooting teams. This allows your gift to provide permanent funding and truly change the future. Make a gift today specifying the school or schools of your preference to receive the benefits of your contribution. Your gift may support existing shooting programs or help new ones get started. So please join me in contributing and be generous.
With your support, we can change the future."
