In 2017, Dana Ford, then head men’s basketball coach at Tennessee State University, championed the first Rebound Challenge Game. Students, local businesses and fans alike joined in to bring awareness to the issue of domestic violence and to pledge their support for The Rebound Foundation and Marda’s House. Dana, now head men’s basketball coach at Missouri State University, will proudly continue The Rebound Challenge for the Bears.
Our desire is to have The Rebound Challenge take place in schools and universities across the nation. Funds raised through the events would benefit The Rebound Foundation and the hometown teams non-profit of choice, tackling domestic violence in their local community. Contact usto get involved.
How does The Rebound Challenge work? Supporters are encouraged to pledge $1 (or more) per rebound the Bears make during their Rebound Challenge Game. Every donation allows us to give a safe home to women and mothers who were courageous enough to escape a life of abuse. It also means we can help more youth through our Block Program to help prevent the cycle of violence we see in so many young relationships.
This year’s Rebound Challenge Game presented by Old Missouri Bank took place on Saturday February 22nd vs. Loyola Chicago in front of a crowd of over 4,250 fans. The Missouri State Bears grabbed 35 rebounds in their win over Loyola Chicago. They were not the only winners that day. Through combined efforts from sponsors and donors, we successfully met our goal and raised over $31,000!
