January 23, 2010NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - The Westminster College Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) will collect donations during Wednesday night's home men's and women's basketball doubleheader vs. Saint Vincent to support the Haiti earthquake relief fund.

In addition, a portion of the gate receipts from the two games will be combined with the SAAC solicitation efforts to support the Haiti relief. The Westminster SAAC effort is a part of an overall Westminster College campus campaign "Hands for Haiti" to raise funds for three Care organizations: World Vision, www.WorldVision.org/Haiti, Partners in Health, www.standwithhaiti.org/haiti, and Oxfam America, www.oxfamamerica.org. All three organizations are on the ground and working diligently in Haiti.

The women's game will tip-off at 6 p.m., followed by the men's game at 8 p.m.
