Bend Timbers is excited to announce that Directors Mortgage will be our main jersey sponsor going forward for both our competitive and recreational programs! We share the same goals when it comes to youth sports, soccer, and community, and Directors Mortgage is also a highly respected business in Bend. They are committed to helping the club both in the present and more significantly, in the future, and we couldn't be happier to welcome Directors Mortgage into the Bend FCT family.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank Jamie Voth-Pickens, the VP of Marketing & Business Development at Directors Mortgage, and also President/CEO, Mark Hanna for making this possible. Uniform 'mock-ups' will be on display soon featuring the Directors Mortgage logo proudly on the front.
A message from Directors Mortgage President/CEO Mark Hanna to the club is below:
March 7th, 2022
Dear Bend FC Timbers Team Members and Families,
As a locally owned company, we are honored and excited to announce our club sponsorship of the Bend FC Timbers. We are profoundly dedicated to supporting our local community, and this new sponsorship of your club is a great way to give back to the kids and families where we live, work, and play.
Soccer has always been an important part of my life and I value the opportunity to support you and your teams. I started playing soccer in Portland at 6-years-old, was a member of a club team in my area where I lived, and continued playing through college at the University of San Diego on a Division I team. It’s the many great memories of the team environment and the mentorship I received from incredible coaches that inspired me to sponsor youth sports.
One of my favorite memories was a letter from the team’s sponsor and how much it meant to me.Team sponsorship is near and dear to my heart and I am honored to be writing a similar letter to you. All of us at Directors Mortgage are thrilled to have our logo proudly displayed on your jerseys and throughout the home fields.
Directors Mortgage is committed to taking care of our community and we are proud to announce our official club sponsorship for the Bend FC Timbers!
We look forward to many great seasons. Good luck to you and your team!
Sincerely,
Mark J. Hanna
President / CEO
