ABC15 Arizona and Earnhardt Auto Centers kick off the 2nd Chance Sports Gear Drive campaign to help youth and teens in need of sports gear. While it can seem like a simple purchase, for many families, buying a basketball, baseball or even a new football may be out of reach for parents working to make ends meet. That’s why ABC15 Arizona, Earnhardt Auto Centers, BIG 94.5, KMLE 107.9, and LIVE 101.5 Phoenix are teaming up to provide viewers the opportunity to help by donating new or gently used sports gear that will be given to athletes of Boys & Girls Clubs of the Valley. The donated sports gear will support equity for all players by providing them with their own gear to use at home or after school at practice.

A new sports hub is coming to Chandler – The Uncommon. But before opening for business, the restaurant made sure to go the extra mile to invest in its new community through a $5,000 donation to sports programs for youth and teen members of the Chandler Compadres Boys & Girls Club.
