BURLINGTON, VT -- The Vermont Lake Monsters are excited to announce the continued partnership with Five Guys Burgers and Fries during the annual May Days fundraiser to benefit non-profits from across the state of Vermont. "Five Guys May Days" fundraiser will launch May 1st as a month-long program devoted to helping raise funds and awareness for state wide non-profits.
Support of local non-profits has demonstrated the strong commitment both the Lake Monsters and Five Guys have to the greater Burlington community. The goal of this program is not only to provide the opportunity for organizations to raise money, but also raise awareness for their programs while providing a chance for supporters to come together at the ballpark.
The Howard Center is just one of the many local non-profits who has benefitted from participating in Five Guys May Days. "Throughout the year, we benefit from the generous support of the Lake Monsters." said Catherine Shahan, Director of Community Friends Mentoring at the Howard Center. "We appreciate our community partnership as it provides opportunities for many of our clients to enjoy an afternoon or evening of baseball, hot dogs, and fun!" Thank you, Lake Monsters for giving back and ensuring the whole community has access to your programs."
Participating non-profits will have the entire month of May to promote and sell $7 Lake Monsters tickets through a specific URL link designated to their organization for a specific game during the season. After the month of May is completed, the Lake Monsters will donate $2.50 per fundraising ticket sold back to the organization. Following the selling period, Five Guys will donate up to $500 to match the amount raised by the highest selling non-profit in the program. Organizations will then be recognized on field with a check presentation at a Lake Monsters game this season.
