LSC wins SoupGrant!

LSC Wins SoupGrant Lansing!

soupgrant-3On December 18th, 2014, the Lansing Soccer Club was invited to participate in a monthly competition called SoupGrant Lansing! SoupGrant is a micro-grant given out on the 3rd Thursday of every month. How it works is two local organizations are selected from a group of applicants each month and invited to come and compete. Every person who attends the event pays $5 for a soup dinner and one vote. Each organization gives a brief summary of who they are and why they are seeking funds and then everyone votes. The organization that receives the most votes wins all of the money raised that evening.

We were so happy to see so many of our LSC families at the event! The LSC won over $200 and it was the second largest reward SoupGrant has ever given out! This money will be used to replace some of our equipment and to purchase grass seed to repair our fields this spring.

soupgrant-1Thank you once again to all of the LSC families that joined us for a great evening of soup and community, and also a big thank you to SoupGrant Lansing for having us!
