Can't Donate Through Dollars?
Our goal is simple: to raise and distribute funds locally to western Montanans suffering from breast cancer. We appreciate and encourage support in a variety of efforts. Below are ideas of fun and different ways to get involved, donate and support this cause.
Poker Games: get together with a group of your friends and play some poker. Donate all or half of the winning hands to Team Up Montana through www.teamupmontana.com or by contacting the St. Patrick Hospital and Health Foundation at 406.329.5640. Or coordinate with different facilities that host poker games and see if they would be willing to host a poker tournament that benefited Team Up Montana.
Powder Puff Teams: form a team with your friends and compete against other powder puff teams the morning before the game on October 9, 2010. The final two teams will face-off during halftime of the Griz game that day in the Grizzly Washington Stadium. The final game will be shown on the Griz Jumbotron and broadcasted live by KPAX. There will be prizes for the winning players. For more information call 406.329.2905.
