Host a Sports Equipment Drive

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST IN HOSTING A SPORTS DRIVE !

A big part of our mission is, usually spontaneously, delivering gently used, or new, sports equipment to disadvantaged areas of the Dominican Republic in order to excite the local youth. We are now hoping to coordinate with the Dominican Sports Ministry to get as many goods into eager hands.

Mobilizing folks back in the US to clean out the garages or closets can go a long way to improving the life of a child across the pond.

If you are interested in hosting a drive, please consider the following suggestions and guidelines :

  1. While we are not picky about what we receive, we can surely send you a flyer which includes the type of gear that has the greatest value to the kids and our programs. You are welcome to publish the flyer on your social media or disseminate it another way.

  2. Collect the gear and box it to be shipped to Hackensack, NJ. Because JCC has a limited budget and MUST pay for the boxes to be shipped from New Jersey to the DR (and they do so at a discount for us) yet wishes NOT to discourage any efforts leading to an equipment donation, we recommend that a part of your campaign can include a request to your community to take a small financial collection to cover the shipping from your hometown to our shipper in New Jersey. That said, if you are unable to do so, please let us know via email at juegacomocampeon@gmail.com and we can discuss what we can work out to cover a part, or all, of your shipping.

  3. Ship your box to the following address (Please make sure to include Attn : JCC on the box)

FAMA Shipping
48 ORCHARD STREET
Hackensack, N.J 07601
Attn: JCC

Please note that our shipper (Fama) does not charge JCC based on weight but rather on volume (please deflate all balls if possible to maximize space). Thank you so much for DONATING LIKE A CHAMPION!
