Sign-ups for Gift Wrapping Party and Basketball Event
This post is for the students of COM 370:
If you would like to volunteer to help out at the gift wrapping party on Saturday December 6th, beginning at 6:30 PM, or the Spirit of Giving Benefit on Saturday December 13th, beginning at 11:00 AM, please respond to this post with a comment stating your preference. Both events will be held at Mercer County Community College, just 15 minutes from campus.
We will likely need help for both events, and I'm sure Professor Carbonaro will be willing to give extra credit to those of you who volunteer. We're really looking forward to these events, and your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
-Adam, Andy, Cindy, Corey, and Danny

12/13/08 (Saturday) SPIRIT OF GIVING HOLIDAY BASKETBALL BENEFIT
Enjoy a friendly and exciting game of basketball while demonstrating your holiday spirit. All attendees are asked to bring a new winter accessories or teen gift that will be donated to underprivileged youth. (click to view photos & videos)
Corporate sponsorships for all events are welcome & greatly appreciated!
There is great potential for the foundation and the event in this arena since there is limited exposure to the community thus far. Issuing more press releases similar to the latter and really pushing the event in print and media broadcast will surely draw a larger audience.

Spirit of Giving Benefit information
The Spirit of Giving Benefit, to be held on December 13th at Mercer County Community College, is a fun and exciting game of basketball focused on demonstrating holiday spirit and providing for financially challenged families. All attendees of the tournament will be asked to bring a gift that will be donated to an underprivileged youth.
The event will begin at 11:00 am with a brunch for the families, at which time the gifts will be distributed. Then, starting at 1:00, the benefit basketball game will commence, featuring the Three Doctors, community leaders, and celebrity participants!
The tournament will be hosted by a local celebrity or comedian (TBA), and the game will include numerous activities such as a live DJ, free food, cheerleaders and various contest giveaways. The Three Doctors, who have been nationally recognized for their inspirational story of perseverance, will give a motivational speech at halftime of the game.
We hope that this year’s Spirit of Giving Benefit is even more successful than those held in previous years. We are fortunate to have the use of Mercer County Community College’s newly remodeled gym, and we can’t wait to welcome you to this wonderful event on the 13th!
