Dash enjoy record-setting Charity Call-A-Thon

November 30, 2016

Here is a link to the original story on the team's website.

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (Nov. 30, 2016) – At Tuesday’s Charity Call-A-Thon, the Dash raised more than $4,000 in a two-hour period, easily the most successful Call-A-Thon in team history! Proceeds from this event will go to the Dash’s 2016 Charity Partner, Veterans Helping Veterans Heal (VHVH).

Thanks to this incredible response, we are pushing our Call-A-Thon sales through the end of the week! Contributions for VHVH have come through monetary donations and commemorative brick purchases. These bricks, which can be personalized with a special message, will be installed outside the main gates before the Dash’s 2017 home opener.

From now through Friday, the Dash are offering special pricing for these bricks. The first brick is just $125, and each additional brick is only $75 each. We will also continue to accept monetary donations, and you can support a veteran for a day with a $10 donation, a week with a $50 donation or a month with a $300 donation. Fans can contribute by calling (336) 714-6880.

Full details on the Commemorative Brick Program are available here.

Proceeds for the 2016 Commemorative Brick program will go to Veterans Helping Veterans Heal, a local non-profit that restores home, health and spirit to homeless veterans and transitions them from consumers of services to contributors of our community. More information about this great organization is available at vhvh.org.

Welcome to clubphilanthropy.com!

Minor League Baseball clubs have been actively involved in their communities for many years. For the first time, their activities and contributions will be chronicled on this site.

Clubs don’t publicize all of their activity, so these stories represent a mere fraction of the contributions MiLB clubs make to their communities every year.
