Baskets Turn Into Dollars for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County

Three hundred and thirty three-point baskets may mean a great year for the Valparaiso University Crusaders Men’s Basketball team, but it means even more to the boys and girls who attend the Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County.

As part of the Nothing But Net Sponsorship Program, each time the Crusaders scored a three-point basket during the season, four local MVP Sponsors generously donated $20 to the Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County.

The 2007-08 Nothing But Net MVP Sponsors were First National Bank of Valparaiso, Grieger’s Motors, Smiles of Valparaiso and Urschel Laboratories.

With the help of the these community-minded businesses, Valparaiso University Athletics and the entire men’s basketball team, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Porter County continues to deliver essential youth development programs and make a difference in the lives of more than 5,300 Porter County youth who attend one of the four clubhouses located in Chesterton, Portage, South Haven, and Valparaiso or one of the nine KIDS TOP before and after school childcare locations.
