Suns MATCHING continues! And now authentic JERSEY giveaways too!

The Suns will match ticket sales through the end of December!

Bright Side readers and Suns fans have donated more than $15,000 so far to send underprivileged kids to the Suns home game vs. the Sacramento Kings on January 7!

THANK YOU!

Join the party! Donate now: suns.com/brightside

That’s approaching the most we have ever donated in a single season!! So far, readers and fans have donated more than 1,700 tickets to underprivileged kids, which have been matched by the Suns to make it nearly 3,500 total tickets going to underprivileged kids throughout the state!

3,500 is the most total tickets we have ever given out, but that’s thanks to the Suns generosity in matching every donation so far. Last year, we had readers and fans donate more than 2,300 tickets directly, with the Suns matching the last 1,000.

But we are not done yet.

And the Suns are so excited about our progress they have decided to UP THE ANTE.

Not only will the Suns continue matching all donations this season, we have also added another group of RAFFLE ITEMS for all donors!

RAFFLE FOR SUNS JERSEY

If you’ve already donated, here’s a reason to donate again...

Every set of five tickets donated from 12/16 to 12/31 will be entered in a raffle for an authentic Devin Booker, Kelly Oubre Jr. or Deandre Ayton Suns jersey!

That’s right! Three winners. Any of this year’s jerseys, as long as it is in stock at the Team Store at Talking Stick Resort Arena.

This promotion will run similar to the VIP package. In this case, every five tickets by a single donor is a new entry in the raffle. If you donate 10, that’s two entries. And so on. And there are THREE winners.

Why we are here

We want to give back to the Phoenix community. I feel very fortunate to have a roof over my head and a little spending money in my pocket. And it occurred to me that I can do a lot more good with this here website than I could most any other way.

So that’s where you come in. I don’t ask you for much. There’s no subscription fee. No incessant pop-ups. No click-baiting. No slide-show articles that force you to click over and over to get to the end.

You don’t pay a dime for exclusive Suns coverage all day, all night, 365 days a year. We publish unique REAL analysis more than 1,000 times a year. Plus free podcasts, for those who like that kind of thing.

All I want from you is $9 a year. And it’s not even for me.

Just give the money to an underprivileged kid in the form of a ticket to an NBA game. The money isn’t for me. In fact, I’m giving hundreds a year of my own money to pay for the not-free custom t-shirts as well as whatever I’ve got left over for tickets for them.
