El Paso, TX – The Student Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) is proud to announce that they will make a generous donation just over $600 to the Miracle League of El Paso (7499 Viscount Blvd. 79925) on Wednesday, Dec. 6 at 6 p.m. Media is encouraged to attend the event.
The SAAC introduced the “Miners Give Back” program last year and was excited to donate nearly $4,000 to the Child Crisis Center and the Humane Society last November.
The amount donated is at the discretion of each student-athlete, and the program is not mandatory. UTEP coaches and staff are also welcome to participate.
This year, the SAAC selected the Miracle League of El Paso. SAAC softball representative junior Mariah Ellis and multiple student-athletes will be in attendance to present the donation to the Miracle League.
“The Miners Give Back Program provides us student-athletes an opportunity to help people who are less fortunate than us in the El Paso area,” Ellis said. “It allows us to give back to the community and shows that student-athletes value the support that we get from the community.”
