McArthur Court, Eugene, OR
We are coming together at McArthur Court on November 19th 2023, to shoot baskets and make Oregon more wildfire resilient!
Each participant has 60 seconds to sink as many free throws as they can.
Individuals, businesses, and organizations sponsor the event with donations and free throw pledges, so players can raise money with every shot they make!
Each tax-deductible donation helps provide young people with fire gear, jobs, and opportunities to make a difference in management and on the front lines.
Funds raised reduce wildfire risk and empower Indigenous communities and young people in Oregon. Beneficiaries include the Oregon Conservation Corps, Wagon Burners, and FireGen Collaborative! The event also features artisans, organizations, and more.
Participants are given a time window to show up, and have 60 seconds to make as many free throws as they. Each shot made raises funds to support wildfire risk reduction, and empower youth and Indigenous communities.
We encourage individuals, artisans, organizations, companies, etc. to table at the Wildfire Resilience Hoop-A-Thon! Applications are reviewed and accepted on a rolling basis between now and November 12th, 2023.
Volunteers can engage with a variety of activities, from organizing community involvement and support, to helping participants, catching rebounds, managing music, and doing set up and tear down.
This form gathers contact info, desired sponsor level, and collects any questions you have! Follow the donation link, tax deduction info, sponsor perks, and your next steps will be shared by email.
