FHN Jr. Huskies Cheerleading, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt nonprofit, is a volunteer-led youth organization formed to provide interested athletes an opportunity to learn and love the sport of cheerleading. Qualified athletes are in third through eighth grades in the Forest Hills Northern school district. Whether, through state-sanctioned competitions or football games, we support as many athletic events as possible and promote a positive game-day atmosphere for the Forest Hills Youth Football League (FHYFL).
Our program is meant to prepare athletes for high school cheerleading and strengthen the overall cheer program at Forest Hills Northern High School. At our core, FHN Jr. Huskies Cheerleading was founded on support, hard work, and spirit. Our athletes will develop a sense of integrity, pride, and enthusiasm through the rigor of this program. The concepts of learning to cheer are designed to instill discipline, tradition, honor, and commitment in our athletes–both in the sport and in the classroom.
Our program is in need to meet our goals to raise money to support Jr. Huskies Cheerleading, including assistance for families of athletes who cannot afford the costs of cheerleading, first aid kits, uniforms, administration and insurance fees, program events, training equipment, and our FHN Jr. Huskies Cheerleading Senior Scholarship Fund. This scholarship is awarded to a FHN Senior Cheerleader who gives back to the program as a coach or mentor and has been through our youth program.
To date, our program has been run strictly on program fees from parent. We can no longer sustain this operating model if we are to continue to grow and provide opportunities to further develop young athletes to believe in themselves, their team, their school, and their community, all while supporting their goals and potential.
Please consider the giving options for our non profit program. Teams are built on trust and loyalty. As a program, we commit ourselves to live this through organization, consistency, and support to make this an exemplary program and positive experience for all. We look forward to following up with you and answering any questions you may have.
Gratefully,
The FHN Jr. Huskies Cheerleading Board of Directors
