PearUp with Ritz Bits Snacks For Your Champion #RitzBitsTeams #Soccer #JoinIn #Youth

My son has been playing soccer since he was in kindergarten. He now has five years under his belt.  Our local community has been very supportive of the kids, both with their time and donations. Parents volunteer as coaches and local business usually pay for the team's t-shirts and equipment.  One year, my son's team was even sponsored by the insurance company I used to work for.  My son and his whole team worked hard and while they don't always come out on top, they all had fun playing and made their sponsors proud. My son Frankie's favorite position this year was the goalie, and he blocked more than one shot.

My hometown has been fortunate and has always had what they needed for their team. But not every town is so lucky. There are places where supply can't meet demand and kids may not have the uniforms they need. Ritz Bits doesn't want to see any child stuck on the sidelines, so they have teamed up with PearUp.com to help soccer teams raise money for uniforms and fees. One of those teams is the Norwin Soccer Club. Ritz Bits is ready and willing to give this team $1000 toward their cause, but they need you to help. Don't worry. It doesn't cost you a penny. It only takes a few minutes of your time. First, meet the Norwin Soccer Club by visiting the PearUp website.  Pear is a social engagement platform that allows groups to earn sponsorships from brands--for free!

Ritz Bits is doing most of the work. They will hand out up $100,000 in donations through Pear, but they need you to help make this happen. Don't worry. It won't cost you a dime. All you have to do is sign up for the PearUp site (you can do this in two minutes flat using your face book account). Once you are signed in, there are several activities you can complete in order to earn points. Those points transfer into dollars for the Norwin Soccer Team. Some of the tasks you can complete are a few quick survey questions, sharing the event on your social networks, posting a photo of your soccer star, or following Ritz Bits on social networks like Instagram or Face Book. Each task you complete brings the team a little closer to their goal. Last I checked, they were already halfway there.




Want to hear even more good news? The giving doesn't stop with this team. Ritz Bitz wants to help YOU too. Do you have a soccer team who needs help with their expenses? You can sign up with PearUp.com and ask Ritz Bitz to sponsor that team. Apply for Ritz Bitz custom T-shirts or they can cover your team/league fees. This money can go a long way toward making your child's team  a dream team! Just be sure to read all the fine print to make sure you are eligible. For example, the program doesn't apply to school affiliated teams.

If you decide to sign up, I want to hear about it! Come back and leave a comment with the link to your Pear. I'll be sure to visit and offer my support for all my readers' teams! In the meantime, play smart and make sure your kids stay hydrated and keep up their energy with healthy high-protein snacks like Ritz Bits!
