What we are: The Toledo Celtics Rugby Club Inc Foundation is a non-profit charity registered with the State of Ohio and is a tax-exempt organization with an IRS 501c3 standing.

​

What we do: The Foundation exists to promote the sport of rugby in Northwest Ohio and South-East Michigan. Hosting youth skills camps, organizing men and women’s senior level clubs, and promoting the local area youth teams allows the foundation to serve people from all walks of life throughout the region. The foundation strives to grow the sport of Rugby Union in all levels of competition and age groups.

​

How we do it: The foundation relies on funding from corporate sponsorships as well as individual gifts as a primary source of funding. Our 501c3 status allows for itemized tax deductions to be donated to the organization for a tax credit. Members of the associated clubs continue to raise money for the foundation as well through a variety of ways including refereeing local matches, hosting fundraising events, and promoting the foundation’s mission to local municipalities and schools.
