Donkey Basketball to be Held Mar 07
03/05/2009 - The Crime Victim Assistance Center, a program of the Eastland County Crisis Center, Inc. announced the 4th Annual Donkey Basketball Fundraiser.
This years’ annual fundraiser event is going to be on Saturday, March 7, 2009 at 7 p.m. at the Eastland Middle School Gymnasium. As many of you already know, this event fills up the gymnasium with spectators waiting to see our “celebrity” donkey riders. Our theme this year is [from the donkey’s mouth] “Bring it on….if you can stay on!” Advance tickets this year are $6.00. Tickets at the gate are $8.00.
Our sponsors make this event a huge success. For 3 years, this event has been profitable due to the generosity of our sponsors. We want to make this year the best yet, those who are interested in being a sponsor the cost is $125. Sponsors are listed on the team shirts and are also put in our advertising in the local newspaper and radio station. Each sponsor receives 4 tickets to the main event. The tickets can be donated back at the sponsor’s request and will be given away on KTXS radio and the sponsor will be identified on the air.
Funds raised by this event provide support and assistance for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault and child abuse in Eastland and Stephens Counties. Some of the services and assistance that we provide are not provided for by the state and federal grants we receive. All services to victims are provided at no cost to the victim.
About the Eastland County Crisis Center – The Eastland County Crisis Center, Inc. has been providing services to domestic violence and sexual assault victims since 1994 as the Crime Victim Assistance Center (CVAC). The CVAC’s mission is to provide services that are designed to meet the physical, social, and emotional needs of domestic violence and sexual assault victims by providing immediate, short, and long-term assistance.
