The board of directors of the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame is now accepting applications for funding from its amateur sports development fund. The deadline to submit an application for funding is May 4. Applications can be accessed at the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame website at
www.buffalosportshallfame.com.
The fund has been assisting Western New York amateur athletic groups since 1993. It was originally setup to assist the World University Games, however, over the past 25 years, more than 150 individuals and organizations have benefited from the fund, with the total amount distributed topping $125,000. Money is awarded to amateur athletes, teams and organizations seeking financial assistance to foster the pursuit of a higher level of athletic achievement.
The committee will only grant monies for purposes other than supplementing an organization's normal operating budget, and awards can be granted for repeat applications from athletes, teams or organizations provided the purpose for the request is not the same as the prior award.
For more information about the application or applying, contact Mike Buczkowski at
