TRAVERSE CITY, MI - Traverse City West Athletic Boosters and Foguth Financial Group have teamed up to launch a helmet donation match campaign that aims to raise up to $20,000 to equip student athletes for the upcoming 2025 football season. Foguth Financial Group will match donations dollar-for-dollar, up to $10,000, to help the program purchase 45 new football helmets.

With a projected 145 student athletes expected to participate in the 2025 season—and only 100 helmets currently in the program—Traverse City West faces a pressing need to expand its equipment inventory. Each helmet can cost upwards of $450, making this initiative vital to player safety, program growth, and the continuation of a proud football tradition.

“Football is more than a sport—it’s a place where leadership, resilience, and teamwork are built,” said Michael Foguth, Founder of Foguth Financial Group. “We’re honored to support the Titans as they invest in their players' safety and their futures.”

The partnership underscores Foguth Financial Group’s ongoing commitment to community enrichment and youth development. Known for its work in financial education and philanthropy across Michigan, the company views this initiative as a way to protect young athletes and empower their pursuit of excellence both on and off the field.

“The growth of our program is exciting, but it also presents challenges,” said Jason Carmien, TC West Athletic Director “This partnership not only helps us meet those challenges head-on—it shows our players the power of community support and belief in their potential.”

THANK YOU FOGUTH FINANCIAL GROUP!
