EstrelaBet and R10 Score Vasco convert players' baskets into food for communities in need

In an initiative that combines passion for sports and solidarity, EstrelaBet, in partnership with R10 Score Vasco da Gama, is launching the second edition of the campaign 'Bet on Good: Every Basket Counts!'. The initiative transforms baskets made by Vasco players on the court into basic food baskets for communities neighboring São Januário.

For every basket scored in six NBB Caixa games during November and December, the company will donate a basic food basket, aiming to provide a more dignified and hopeful Christmas for dozens of families.

The initiative was carried out during games against Botafogo (November 15) and Corinthians (November 17) and will continue in matchups with Paulistano (December 4), São Paulo (December 6), Minas (December 10), and Brasília (December 12).

"We understand the transformative power of sports and, in partnership with R10 Score Vasco da Gama, want to use this initiative to encourage more charitable actions and bring joy and solidarity to families supporting the club. In 2024, we hope to surpass last year’s donations and impact even more people," emphasizes Renan Cavalcanti, CMO of EstrelaBet.

"Vasco is highly active in initiatives that benefit surrounding communities, always striving to improve conditions for as many people as possible and addressing diverse needs. Last year’s campaign was so successful that this year we plan to increase the number of people assisted and expand to other communities,” comments Raphael Pulga, Vice President of History and Social Responsibility.

The project "Bet on Good: Every Basket Counts!" strengthens the social commitment of EstrelaBet and the Vasco da Gama Regatta Club to families in the region and reinforces the role of companies and sports clubs in social transformation. In the 2023 edition, the campaign benefited 150 families.
