LOS ANGELES, July 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- 15 Seconds of Fame's Fanthropic, a digital philanthropic community bringing together sports fans, teams, professional athletes, and charities to make a real and lasting impact, today announced a partnership with basketball superstar Blake Griffin and the Team Griffin Foundation. The organizations will develop a fan sweepstakes to raise funds and awareness for Team Griffin by offering one lucky fan and a guest the opportunity to "Spend a Day in the Life of Blake Griffin."
Fans are encouraged to make a contribution of as little as $10 with their entry into the sweepstakes with all proceeds directly benefiting the Team Griffin Foundation.
The winner and their selected guest will spend a day watching practice, participating in a game of H-O-R-S-E, enjoying a private meal, as well as receive a pair of autographed sneakers and access to a $5,000 Nike shopping spree.
"Whether a student is looking to get into athletics, the arts, or something else entirely, the Team Griffin Foundation aims to support both young men and women in pursuit of their dreams," said Blake Griffin. "I'm thrilled to partner with 15 Seconds of Fame's Fanthropic to help launch Team Griffin's latest fundraising initiative."
"Our meaningful partnership with Blake and the Team Griffin Foundation represents another great opportunity to help raise funds for an important and worthwhile cause, while at the same time offering incredible once-in-a-lifetime experiences to fans. The Team Griffin Foundation will receive 100% of the net proceeds from this campaign, a hallmark of Fanthropic since being acquired by 15 Seconds of Fame," said Michael Mackey, Chief Business Development Officer at 15 Seconds of Fame and Chairman of Fanthropic.
