Featured Partner: Sports Basement


Sports Basement is a sporting-goods retailer with multiple locations throughout the Bay Area and a long-time supporter of WCEF.  Their mission is one of a virtuous circle; as the company grows and prospers so too should the communities that patronize those stores. Sports Basement has donated more than $1 million in cash, gift cards and in-kind donations to over 600 local schools since 2010. Last year, WCEF received $9,440.58 from the Basementeer program.

Are you a Basementeer? With all the sports and activities your family participates in - you should be! Basementeers save 10% on every purchase, in-store and online with 10% of profits going to WCEF. Click here to sign up and select WCEF as your charity of choice.

Summer is coming and now is the time to start stocking up on all your sporting and outdoor activity needs. Thank you for shopping with Sports Basement and supporting WCEF.
