Bates Participates in Sponsorship to Raise Funds for Wounded Warrior Project (WWP)

(October 2009) Bates footwear along with, Metro PCS, and Sunset retirement services is sponsoring our local Jenison Highschool football this fall to raise funds for Wounded Warrior Prject (WWP).

On and off the field, Jenison Football understands there are many battles that need to be won. They recognize that some battles are much bigger than our own. Together we can help raise awareness and funds to help this cause win its battle. The 2009 season will conclude with the Jenison-Hudsonville game. The Georgetwon neighbors, and long time rivals will work together this season to raise money and awareness for the Wounded Warrior Project. During the game, both booster clubs will come together to present a check to WWP.

To date, they have raised $2500 with Wolverine World-Wide Bates Division and Metro PCS being the lead donors. Thier goal is to raise $5000 to donate.

Dedicated Wounded Warrior Project Football Game takes place Friday, October 23, Jenison HS Stadium.
