Donation Requests

The Mississippi Surge are actively involved in the supporting various fundraising efforts throughout the Mississippi Gulf Coast region for schools, hockey clubs, charitable and non-profit organizations that embody the spirit of giving back to the community the Surge wish to express.

While we would like to respond positively to every request we receive, we cannot guarantee your organization a donation due the large volume of requests we receive each year. Please review the checklist below to ensure your organization qualifies.

Does your organization match one of our focus areas?

• Education
• Health and Wellness
• Children’s Athletics
• Disadvantaged Youth

If your organization fits into one of these categories, please proceed to the Donation Request Form.
