Women's Basketball Participating in Philly Stair Climb on Sunday; Raising Money for Special Olympics
11.28.11 | Women's Basketball
Event will take place at 10:00 a.m. at the BNY Mellon Center in downtown Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA - The Temple women's basketball team has committed to participate in the Philly Stair Climb on Sunday, Dec. 4, to benefit the athletes of Special Olympics Pennsylvania's (SOPA's) Philadelphia program also known as T.E.A.M. Philly. The team has set a fundraising goal of $1,200 and is looking to fans of the Owls for support! The Philly Stair Climb is 53-floor vertical challenge that will take place at the BNY Mellon Center in Downtown Philadelphia.
There is no charge to the athletes for their participation in Special Olympics, as everything from competition to room and board is funded by SOPA Philadelphia. The 1st Annual Stair Climb will raise funds for athletes to take part in trainings; local and state competitions; seasonal tournaments; and medical screenings through SOPA's Healthy Athletes initiative.
The Owls are not asking fans to take the Climb, but instead, are asking for donations to Special Olympics Pennsylvania Philadelphia on behalf of the team taking the 1st Annual Philly Stair Climb. Any amount would be appreciated – it all goes to a wonderful cause, and every little bit gets them that much closer to the goal.
Your contribution will help Special Olympics athletes enhance their daily living skills, build greater self-esteem and develop physical fitness through their participation. The athletes and their families will benefit greatly from your generosity.
