Have you seen the new retro green sunglasses from the Seminole Hard Rock Tampa? We have and we're a huge fan! But it gets better. Not only are these glasses super cool, they help raise money for the Ian Beckles Foundation.
Ian Beckles, a former player for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and current co-host of the Ron & Ian sports show on 620 AM WDAE, started the foundation to help teens in the foster care system. The Foundation provides education, support, and mentorship to help these teens succeed when they age out of the system.
The Seminole Hard Rock Tampa has launched a unique fundraising campaign to help raise money for local Tampa Bay charities. This month, all eyes are on the Ian Beckles Foundation. They are hosting a Red Carpet Charity Slot Tournament on Friday, March 27 and will donate 50% of the proceeds from the tournament to the Foundation and 50% to the prize pool. In addition, 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the limited edition Ian Beckles Foundation green sunglasses, as well as proceeds from sales of the 2015 Seminole Hard Rock Girls Calendar, will be donated to the Foundation.
Green not your thing? Don't worry, the Seminole Hard Rock Tampa's fundraising efforts will continue on a monthly basis. Next month, they will support the Derrick Brooks Foundation and release a new, limited edition color of these chic sunglasses, so stay tuned.
With the help of the Seminole Hard Rock Tampa, the future's so bright, you gotta wear shades.
