RazorGator Takes Boys & Girls Club Members to the
Stand for Early Gridiron Action
RazorGator Donates Pre-Season NFL Tickets to Boys & Girls Clubs
Nationwide
Los Angeles – Aug. 5, 2008 – Local youth from several Boys & Girls Clubs
are among the first fans to see NFL teams hit the gridiron for pre-season
openers, thanks to generous donations from RazorGator in collaboration with
Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA).
As the professional football season kicks off this month, local Boys &
Girls Club members in 14 cities across the U.S. including San Diego,
Phoenix, Dallas, Indianapolis and Atlanta, will have an opportunity to
experience the tackles, touchdowns and fun up close and personal with their
favorite NFL players, some of whom are former Club members themselves!
“RazorGator couldn’t be more thrilled to extend NFL tickets to Boys &
Girls Club members,” states Jeff Lapin, RazorGator CEO. “As a long-time
personal advocate, it is an honor to be able to contribute to this program.”
“A large number of our members play flag-football at the Club and engage
in various sports activities in school. We are thrilled about seeing the NFL
in action, and with the generosity of RazorGator for making this experience
happen for our youth,” said Frank Sanchez, BGCA's vice president of
Corporate &
Partner Relationships.
