(Sioux Falls, SD)-- Fans of the Sioux Falls Storm who want to catch the team's final regular season game AND help participate in a charitable cause can do both this Saturday night at the Sioux Falls Arena.

The Storm and SMG, which manages the Arena, are asking fans to bring items from the Children's Inn "Wish List" to the game in exchange for a free ticket. Fans will receive one ticket for each item donated. All donations will be taken to Children's Inn after the game to help the local non-profit support its mission.

Children's Inn provides 24-hour emergency services to victims of domestic violence and child abuse & neglect. In 2011, over 1,200 individuals found safe shelter at the Inn. Food and household items are needed to help in providing for those served.

"All you need to do is bring one or more of the items on this list, and you can get in to the game for free to help cheer the team on to yet another undefeated season before we head in to the playoffs next week," says Wendy Lewter, Director of Sales and Partnership Services with the Storm.

Sioux Falls Arena staff will help gather the items in the Arena lobby.

Here are the top needs as identified by Children's Inn:

Bath Towels

New Car Seats (5 point harness, high back boosters, standard boosters) Granola Bars

Pop-tarts

Cereal Bars

Fruit Snacks

Other items of need include:

Canned fruit; canned vegetables; coffee; sugar; non-dairy creamer; brownie and cake mixes and frosting; grocery gift cards; activity gift cards (movies, zoo, fast food, bowling); combs and brushes; paper towels; mattress pads; pillows; napkins; arts and craft kits; new toys; umbrellas.

A more detailed list can be found at www.chssd.org/childrensinn
