Elon Men’s Basketball Offers Ticket Discount in Toys for Tots Campaign

ELON, N.C. – The Elon University men’s basketball program will be teaming up with the Elon Student Government Association and the Office of Student Health and Wellness in sponsoring donations for “Toys for Tots” on campus.

You can help at upcoming home games on Nov. 30 against FIU and on Dec. 6 against UNC Asheville. Bring a new, unwrapped toy to the FIU and UNC Asheville games and you will receive a discounted ticket. The normal ticket prices of $15 adult & $7 youth will be discounted to $10 adult & $5 youth for each donation.

The local “Toys for Tots” campaign has assisted 3,000 families in Alamance County in 2016 by working in cooperation with other agencies and churches to distribute toys to children who may not otherwise receive gifts during the holiday time.

The foundation allocates contributions to local Marine Corps Units to serve the children locally. You can also donate via the Toys for Tots Foundation website at http://www.toysfortots.org/donate/Default.aspx.

The Phoenix returns home on Wednesday, Nov. 30, to take on the FIU Panthers for a 7 p.m. tip inside Alumni Gym.
