Addie Brown, a junior guard with the Red Wolves basketball team, talks about this year’s IU East Women’s Basketball Free Throw-athon. Watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsAePNy9oIs.

The second IU East Women’s Basketball Free Throw-athon will be held Feb. 14 following the Red Wolves’ 11 a.m. home game against WVU Tech. The event will be broadcast live.

The Free Throw-athon will support Reid BRAvo! BRAvo! is a Reid Foundation initiative that brings joy to the serious matter of breast cancer. BRAvo! events raise funds to provide free digital mammograms for uninsured women and financial assistance for patients in need.

The inaugural Free Throw-athon in 2021 generated nearly $2,000 in support of BRAvo!

Red Wolf and Golden Bear fans can sponsor their teams’ Free Throw-athon efforts. The IU East and WVU Tech players will team up to shoot 100 free throws following the Feb. 14 game. Pledge to donate a dollar amount based on free throws made. For example, if the Red Wolves make 90 free throws and you have pledged 10 cents per made free throw, you would make a donation of $9 to ReidBRAvo!

Donations can be made directly to ReidBRAvo! at reidbravo.org/donate. Please make your donation on behalf of the IU East Women’s Basketball Free Throw-athon. Click the “Other” tab to donate a specific amount.

Any donation makes a difference. Consider an early donation of $3.46 in recognition of the IU East women’s basketball program’s team GPA from the 2020 fall semester.
