Over the past year we have studied how to better improve and streamline some different items. Those 3 items are fundraising, supporting local business, and media.

To provide the very best experience for our athletes, it takes funding. We are excited to share some new and unique opportunities to partner with us in the experience and development of our young men and women.

Giving

We created giving levels that are more philanthropic in nature. These are different price points, where individuals can give a monetary pledge, to help fund our athletic programs. We envision alumni, current and past parents/fans, and future Wildcat parents/fans taking advantage of this option.

Corporate Sponsorship

Our local businesses graciously support for our community and schools. We created a streamlined approach to take pressure off of businesses, while also creating some additional exposure opportunities at RHHS athletic events and through social media. Through our website, local business can reach out to us and gather information on supporting RH Athletics as a whole, or for individual sports.

Wildcat Media

RH Productions has a long history of producing in-house media for students, teachers, and all stakeholders. From Wildcat News, live streaming events, commercials and media for local business, RH Productions has served as an outlet for all things Richmond Hill. This is one of our most popular pathways, with the addition of a 3rd teacher, we have over 200 students that are engaged and eager to learn. We are very proud to announce that we are expanding RH productions for Radio and Commercials for our athletic events. This is another great way to give our students industry experience, while producing professional content and building a portfolio for their future. We livestream ALL of our events on NFHS, while radio will cover football, baseball, and basketball.
