Basketball and Benevolence Come Together at Avery This Evening

The Avery Vikings will play host to the Polk Wolverines in a key night of Western Highlands Conference basketball this evening in Viking Gym.

A variety of activities will take place during the night. Avery High School's United in Christ (UIC) group is partnering alongside Young Adults Helping Haiti (YAHH) to raise awareness and funds to help victims of the recent earthquake in the island nation.

The UIC, along with Avery's Student Government Association will have a table set up at the front entrance where fans pay to enter the game. They will be accepting donations and raffling off tickets for prizes. All money raised will go to rebuilding schools in Haiti.

Come out and support your Avery High School basketball teams and players and help our local students help Haiti!
