Baskets for Bradentm
is a on going fund-raising campaign to help find a cure for Juvenile (type 1) Diabetes.Throughout the
year there will be different fund-raiser's held around the greater Pittsburgh area, the main fundraiser for
this campaign is held in conjunction with Duquesne University's Men's Basketball home game season annually. The premise
is to have individual people or businesses co-sponsor a game and to have a Business be a Title Sponsor for the entire
season and match all the co-sponsors contributions during the season. We just completed our second season, 2008/2009 and want
to thank all of our sponsors and individual contributors for both season's. The total amount
raised for our first two season's so far is $25,000.00.. Coach
Ron Everhart and Braden's Parents would like to thank all of those who contributed to the campaign and continue
to make this campaign a success in fighting the battle against this terrible disease.
