Shock Game Helps Us Spread the Word!

On Saturday, August 11, 2007 the Scleroderma Foundation Michigan Chapter was the featured charity of the Detroit Shock game against the Indiana Fever giving the Chapter a fabulous opportunity to have some fun with supporters while spreading the word about scleroderma.

Approximately 30 friends of the Chapter gathered at the Palace of Auburn Hills – with a crowd of approximately 10,000 fellow fans – to root the Shock on to another victory over Indiana and help promote awareness for scleroderma.

Highlights included a jam-packed concourse table that gave thousands of passers-by a look at our Foundation, information about scleroderma, our Chapter, our events and entry into a raffle to win tickets to a future Detroit Pistons game and signed Shock jerseys; formation of a fan tunnel for the Shock that was formed by 20 of our supporters, many dressed in their Scleroderma Foundation gear; and a public service announcement aired on the jumbotron.

THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for the game!
