Butter Braid Fundraising

We are excited to extend our partnership with the Butter Braid company for the third year. This collaboration aims to help offset the season fees for 2026, through a unique fundraising opportunity. The best part if you only have to participate if you choose, it is not mandatory.

We have scheduled two sales periods for this fundraiser. The first one will run from December 11th through December 17th, and the second from March 9th through March 22nd. 

Here's the good news: All proceeds from the butter braid sales will directly reduce your athlete's registration costs. For each butter braid sold, you will receive $5 credit towards your 2026 registration fees. So, if your athlete sells 20 Butter Braids, they will receive a $100 discount on their registration costs.

In the past two years of running this fundraiser, we were able to help families save over $12,000 on registration fees. For the 2025 season, we had one player who sold 124 butter braids, which meant his entire season fee was credited back and he played for free!!

But that's not all! We have some fantastic prizes for our top sellers. When an athlete sells 20 butter braids, they will gain an entry into a drawing to win either a Rawlings Heart of the Hide baseball glove ($300 value) or a Easton bat ($300 value). Once they have met the 20 butter braid minimum, the player will get an additional entry for each additional butter braid sold. The drawing will be held March 23, 2026 with the results posted via video on the Raptors Baseball homepage.

We are thrilled about this initiative and hope you are too. Let's work together to make this fundraiser a success.
