New England Revolution Collect School Supplies for Cradles to Crayons

New England Revolution Collect School Supplies for
Cradles to Crayons


Fans who donate items at the home game on August 17 will receive an
autographed player card




WHO/WHAT: The New England Revolution will continue its series of 2013
charity donation drives by collecting school supplies for Cradles to Crayons
before the Revs' match against Chicago Fire on Saturday, August 17, at Gillette
Stadium. All fans who donate supplies will receive an autographed Revolution
player card.



The event is second in a series of three Revolution charity drives this summer,
which began in July with a soccer equipment collection for Rhode Island- based
Project GOAL.



Cradles to Crayons provides low-income and homeless children (up to age 12) in
Massachusetts and greater Philadelphia with the essential items they need to
learn and thrive. All donations collected will help enhance the educational
lives of many underprivileged kids. The Revolution's 2013 charity donation
series will wrap with a winter coat collection on September 21 for the
Worcester County Sheriff's Office annual coat drive.



WHEN: Saturday, August 17, 2013

Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET



WHERE: Gillette Stadium, One Patriot Place, Foxborough, MA.
