 The Women's Basketball Hall of Fame is hosting "Get Kids in the Game" February 10th and 11th. This event raises basketball donations for underprivileged children all over the world. On Sunday February 10th from 5:30- 6:30 p.m. Basketball Hall of Fame Coaches Pat Summitt and C. Vivian Stringer will have an autograph session for anyone who makes a donation. "I'm really excited to not only donate to a good cause but be able to get an autograph from Pat Summitt since she is such a huge part of UT," said Megan Denson.

World Vision will use the donated basketballs to reach worldwide to children and their families that live in poverty and do not have access to recreational items. The Hall of Fame is hoping to raise 2,000 basketballs during the two day event. This is in effort to meet the goal of 250,000 basketballs World Vision has for the next few years.

On Monday 107.7 FM WIVK and 99.3 FM Sports Animal will have a live broadcast promoting "Get Kids in the Game" throughout the day.
