Generating funds through a local raffle in Billings, Cellular Plus donates nearly $6,000 to MSUB Athletics after sponsoring a hoops doubleheader last weekend. BILLINGS, Mont. – Cellular Plus raised nearly $6,000 through a Montana State University Billings Athletics basket raffle, and is donating all of the proceeds to the Yellowjacket athletics department in an announcement made Thursday. Cellular Plus President Adam Kimmet presented MSUB Athletics with a check for $5,968 during halftime of last Saturday’s home men’s basketball game, yielding the revenue generated by the local raffle directly towards Yellowjacket Athletics. “We are grateful for the support from Cellular Plus, and greatly value their contributions as a corporate partner of MSUB Athletics,” commented Yellowjacket athletic director Krista Montague. “Opportunities for our student-athletes to
succeed are created through local support such as this contribution from Cell Plus, and this donation will go a long way towards supporting our 15 men’s and women’s varsity athletics teams.” Cellular Plus, a Verizon authorized retailer, served as the game sponsor for last weekend’s doubleheader at Alterowitz Gym.
