The Gold Card: Milton’s Playbook for Fundraising Success

Milton Football chose to run a Gold Card fundraiser — and once again, it delivered big. Led by Matt Ross, the team leaned into the proven power of the Gold Card to raise serious money in a short amount of time.

Under the leadership of Head Coach Steve Dembowski, the players executed a full-team effort that led to 2,180 Gold Cards sold, cementing their reputation as one of the most successful fundraising teams in the region. Coach Dembowski, a well-known leader in the Massachusetts High School Football Coaches Association (MHSFCA) and the Northeast 7v7 Summer Tournaments, knows how to build a winning culture — and that includes off the field, too.

“As a head coach, I choose to work with Gold Athletics because they provide great products, first class service and have a proven track record. Equally importantly our players get practice developing people skills, are responsible for their results and get rewarded for performance while helping our team. Gold Athletics is easily the best fund raising partner I have worked with during my 25 year high coaching career.” - Coach Dembowski

Milton Football’s Historic Partnership with Gold Athletics

Since 2015, Milton Football and Gold Athletics have been locked in a powerhouse partnership that’s defined what long-term fundraising success looks like. With over a decade of elite performance, Milton has cemented itself as one of Gold Athletics’ top programs—year after year, campaign after campaign.

Unlike the drawn-out, digital-only models used by many other companies—where campaigns stretch for weeks and payouts take even longer—Milton Football keeps it sharp, simple, and insanely effective. Their fundraiser runs for just 9 days, but thanks to Gold Athletics’ in-person support and strategic planning, that short window packs a massive punch.

In fact, the team sees a huge surge in profits on Blitz Night alone, a signature event that turns fundraising into a full-team rally. It's fast, focused, and incredibly efficient—just how Milton likes it.
