There's more good news for the future of youth shooting sports: Larry and Brenda Potterfield, owners of MidwayUSA, recently donated $107,957 to the MidwayUSA Foundation to benefit the next generation's options in shooting. This donation is courtesy of the matching program offered by the MidwayUSA Foundation, in which donors may choose the shooting team that will benefit from their donation...and Larry and Brenda Potterfield match that donation.

Along with the matching program, the MidwayUSA Foundation offers its active teams promotional items to use as fundraisers. At this time, teams can register to receive a Winchester Model 70 Super Grade rifle to raise funds for their shooting team. Larry and Brenda Potterfield also match proceeds generated from these promotions and returned to a team's respective endowment account.

The MidwayUSA Foundation is a public charity working to sustain the shooting sports industry by providing long-term funding to youth shooting teams. Shooting teams with a Team Endowment Account can draw 5 percent of their account balance each year to use for team expenses. The funds can be used for ammunition, uniforms, entry fees, travel costs and more.

For more information about the MidwayUSA Foundation, Inc., please visit www.midwayusafoundation.org or call 1 (877) 375-4570.
