UNC Women’s Rugby Club has qualified for the Sweet Sixteen National Championship. This is great for the team, but because it will take place in Michigan, the team needs to raise $5000 in two weeks.
Fortunately, they have plenty of ideas.
Wednesday, April 20, from 6:00-8:00: Ben & Jerry’s will donate 10 percent of proceeds to the players (make sure you tell Ben & Jerry’s you want to donate to UNC Rugby)

Winning in Michigan would only be the beginning of the fundraising, however, because the Finals are in California.
“That would be a huge expense and we would only have a week to come up with that money,” said Caitlin Williams, who has played on the team for two years.
With all the ways to donate, it’s easy to help UNC Rugby.
“We’re all students, we’re all broke, but these are great ways to help out the team,” Caitlin said.
