NYRC x COMMUNITY FUNDRAISER
With your help, our 2020 NYRCxBLM fundraiser raised over $8k for ROOTS Rugby Family last year.
We’ve decided to make this an annual event: NYRCxCommunity. We’ve expanded our focus and intend to raise funds each year for an organization that uses rugby & sports to empower their communities.
We’re happy to announce that this year, we are raising funds for PeaK Unleashed—an organization that uses rugby and yoga to improve the futures of incarcerated, special needs, and exploited young people.
How does it work?
During the entire month of June, you can “nominate” NYRC women’s or men’s players to do workouts (see roster of participants & ‘menu’ of workouts below).
Add the workouts you’d like to nominate someone to do, to your cart, and select the name of the person you’d like to complete your workout at check out. This fundraiser is also a competition between the women’s & men’s team to see who raises the most money!
The nominee will then have 1 week to complete their workout. They will post proof of completion on social media and tag you! If they don’t complete the workout within a week, the workout is up for grabs by the opposing team.
On July 1st, we will announce which team raised the most money and the total funds raised! 100% of money raised will be donated to PeaK Unleashed.

Goal: $5,000
