Brackets for Good is nonprofit organization formed in Indianapolis in 2011 by a group of friends from Butler University with the idea that a bracket-style giving campaign could generate excitement around philanthropic giving. Since that time, Brackets for Good has grown to host tournaments in 11 cities in the U.S. as well as a national campaign. Dollars raised by Louisville nonprofits totalled more than $260,000 this year. Across all 12 Brackets for Good tournaments for 2017, the total dollars given was just under $3.5 million according to their website.
Congratulations to all participants who raised both awareness and funds for their organizations.
