Always wanted to own a sports team, but didn't have the money? Now
you're in luck! For a limited time, USHPA is running a 50% off sale on the US
national hang gliding and paragliding teams. From now until the end of March,
you can make a donation to support our world competition teams, and USHPA will
match that amount up to $500 per individual member.

USHPA has offered a donation matching program at membership renewal for many
years. What's different right now is that we're trying to help out the teams
competing on the world stage this spring. To do that, we're matching ALL
donations to the teams for a limited time, whether or not it's time for your
membership renewal.

The offer is open until the end of March. Sooner would be good, to give the team
an idea of how much financial support they can expect. They'll be awarded
however much accrues in the team account through the end of March. After that,
fundraising will start for the 2017 team.

Every donation helps, no matter the size. Let's give them a hand with the
finances, so they can focus on flying well. Thanks for your support!
