Zach Randolph Gives to Plus-1 for Fourth Consecutive Year
January 17, 2013
In support of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, Memphis Grizzlies forward Zach Randolph is giving back to the community, by covering utility payments for families who are in need of assistance. For the fourth consecutive year, Randolph has donated $20,000 to Metropolitan Inter-Faith Association (MIFA) to be allocated to 100 homes in the Memphis area, as part of the Plus-1 program.
Plus-1 is a program administered by MIFA to pay utility services for people in need. MLGW customers fund the program through one-time donations or by adding a dollar or more to their utility bill each month. Since its inception in 1982, Plus-1 has provided millions of dollars in assistance to families in crisis in Memphis and Shelby County.
