Pledge Per Point

Support Florida Opportunity Scholarships -- it's easy!!

You can easily support UF Scholarships by making a "Pledge per Point" for every point the Gator football team scores this season. Your pledge of any amount will help the Portland Gator Club fund scholarships for first generation college students. Your donation is tax deductible and collected at the end of the season. Make checks payable to the Portland Gator Club. Mail checks to Dave Uslan (Treasurer) 17915 SW 113th Avenue, Tualatin, OR 97062.  Download the Pledge Per Point form.
  1. Pledge any amount for each point the Gators score during the regular fooball season. Email Treasurer Dave Uslan with your pledge amount (cents/dollars per point).
  2. Honor your pledge at the end of the season and be entered in an exclusive raffle for a Will Muschamp autographed football!!
Every point the Gators score during the regular season are multiplied by the pledge amount. Here is an example of the possible total pledge based on a 400 point season:
 
 Pledge Per Point Total if 400 pts. 
$0.05  $20 
$0.10  $40 
$0.25 $100 
$1.00 $400 
 
As a point of reference, after the first 3 games, the point total for that Gators is 24+16 +31 = 71 points.

International Gator Day

Annually, Gators give back in their local communities.  Across the Gator Nation, we join in acts of volunteerism on the third Saturday of May.  For the Portland Gator Club, our activities have ranged from removing invasive species with SOLV, packing emergency food boxes with the Oregon Food Bank, and sorting clothes for the Portland Rescue Mission homeless shelters.

Do you have a suggestion for a volunteer opportunity?  Click the Contact Us link above and let us know.  Please join us for International Gator Day.

International Gator Day is usually the third Saturday in May every year.  Watch our announcements and events section for details about International Gator Day.
