HONOLULU – University of Hawai'i Athletics and 'Ahahui Koa Ānuenue are inviting fans to
pledge per double in the "Dollars for Doubles" fundraising initiative in the 2021 baseball seasons. Although it is currently not possible to attend games, this program provides an alternate way to cheer on the 'Bows while also supporting UH Athletics.
Last year's baseball program totaled 32 doubles in 17 games and in 2019, 70 doubles in 50 games
This year's schedule includes an expanded Big West slate with 40 conference games and 11 non-conference games.
Here's how it works:
- Select an amount to pledge per double hit throughout the 2021 season.
- Watch the Rainbow Warriors and cheer them to victory knowing you are positively supporting all 21 sports and more than 500 student-athletes.
- Final pledge commitment will be automatically processed within three (3) business days of the conclusion of the seasons to the provided credit card.
Updates on doubles tallied will be provided via social media.
Pledges are 100% tax deductible gifts to H-Club and not eligible to earn member benefits. A receipt noting your final contribution amount will be provided for your files.
'Bows Together is the Athletics Department theme for the year, which includes fundraising activities and a focus on service and social justice awareness in the community. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Hawai'i Athletics faces budgetary challenges related to student-athlete education (scholarships, cost of attendance, 5th years scholarship), competitive athletic experience (nutrition, apparel, equipment, travel), and maintaining a safe environment (expenses due to COVID-19 protocols).
