Idaho Stampede News Release
BOISE, Idaho (December 2, 2014) - The Idaho Stampede Community Foundation donated a check in the amount of $11,650 to the Hope House, located in Marsing, Idaho, earlier today. Hope House is a home provided for children who are emotionally impaired, developmentally disabled, and/or come from dysfunctional families.
The check was presented today by Stampede President and General Manager Steve Brandes and Stampede head coach Dean Cooper. "We're extremely happy to help the deserving youth at the Hope House for the fifth consecutive year," said Brandes. "This donation wouldn't be possible without the generous citizens of our community. They need to be acknowledged".
A group of community members, spearheaded by Bill Ilett and the members of the Boise Sunrise Rotary Club, helped make this donation possible. Other contributors of the donation include Mike Musgrave and Don Schow from Western Idaho Freightliner, Jim Tulloch and Greg Kitteridge of Cummins Rocky Mountain, and Gary Multanen of Best Bath Systems.
The team has a history of helping the Hope House with basketball camps, donations and other services. In conjunction with this year's donation, the Stampede will host the Hope House kids at a game later this season. "This donation is one of the most heart-felt things that the Idaho Stampede Community Foundation does each year," said Bill Ilett, the Idaho Stampede's Managing Investor and member of Sunrise Rotary. "This, along with our Hope House basketball game sponsored by Boise restaurateur David Krick, provides financial and developmental opportunities for the Hope House youth."
