Wild Treasure Map to Guide us to our Goal!

Fourteen years ago, WWFHA pledged to help young females learn to skate and play hockey – to grow the girls’ game in the northwest.

This year we celebrate 14 years including amazing growth in the last 36 months. With our expansion from 3 teams to 7 teams, our players have increased from approximately 42 members to 121 -- almost 300% growth!

Today, we are more committed than ever to bringing the sport of ice hockey, at every level, to young females in the community, but we need your help.

Will you join us as we strive to reach our goal?

Through crowdfunding, our community can reach out to their large circle of friends, family, friends of friends, and fans of the sport to ask everyone for a small amount of support.

We just launched our 2016 campaign
– #WhenGivingGoWild –
featuring a Wild Treasure Map to help us reach our $25,000 goal in 40 days!

Help us fund the four core areas that will benefit from your patronage:

  • Keeping WWFHA dues subsidized
  • Funding financial aid packages for players needing assistance
  • Providing more training equipment for the teams
  • Reaching out to the community to interest more girls in playing hockey

With each donation we will sail through the Wild Treasure Map, reaching each hockey goal level until we hit the ultimate goal – to Score!

Please contribute today if you can! There are several ways:

  • Donate online: http://www.wwfha.com/donate-today
  • Write a check to ‘WWFHA’ and mail to WWFHA – PO Box 77687, Seattle, WA 98177
  • Company Match
    Participating companies match every dollar you give, including Boeing, Liberty Mutual Group, Microsoft, RealNetworks, and Starbucks.
  • Company Volunteering
    If your company supports a volunteer matching program, please volunteer and submitting your hours.
  • Stock Donation
    Thanks to our friends at UBS, we accept stock donations, providing a great way to maximize your donation and help minimize your tax burden. Contact info@wwfha.com for more details.

You can also help by spreading the word about our campaign!

  • Social Media: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram – not only ‘like’ our posts, but share them too (be sure to tag @WWFHA)
  • Direct Email--biggest impact.
    • Only 0.5% of donations came from outside the organization last year. We want to improve that with your help!
    • Please spend five minutes to send an email to your network of family and friends on your thoughts about WWFHA and what it means to you, your daughter, and the community.
    • Send personally to each individual for the best results. We will keep you posted on the outcome.
