Throughout the month of April, the Timberwolves FastBreak Foundation will find unique ways of saying "Thank You" to Minnesotans for their charitable work and encourage others to get involved in their communities. For the first time, fans will vote to assist in determining which of five pre-selected organizations will receive the $10,000 Fan Appreciation Month grant. Voting will take place online at timberwolves.com and at home games at the Silent Auction Booth located behind section 104. Voting will run April 1-16, 2006 with the winning organization announced April 19 at the Timberwolves game versus Memphis. In addition to the grant, the foundation will recognize an employee, owner, player and fan who has made great contributions through volunteerism in their community.

The Minnesota Timberwolves FastBreak Foundation provides and supports hands-on programs that positively impact Minnesota youth. Through giving, education and basketball opportunities, the Foundation enables young people to make responsible decisions, contribute to their futures and experience lifelong memories.
