EstrelaBet, in partnership with R10 Score Vasco da Gama, concluded the second edition of the “Bet on Good: Every basket counts!” campaign. The goal is to provide a happier Christmas for the community.
For every point scored by the Vasco da Gama basketball team during six NBB Caixa 24/25 games, a basic food basket was donated. Thus, the initiative strengthened social bonds through sport and solidarity.
Solidarity action by EstrelaBet and R10 Score Vasco da Gama
The handover ceremony took place last Wednesday (18) in the club‘s gym. Team players, members of the technical committee were present, as well as residents of communities close to the club’s headquarters, such as Barreira, Tuiuti, Arará and Café.
Families involved in social projects supported by Vasco da Gama also participated in the event.
Renan Cavalcanti, Chief Marketing Manager (CMO) of EstrelaBet, highlighted: “We know the transformative power of sport and we want, in partnership with R10 Score Vasco da Gama, to encourage more and more charitable actions, in addition to bringing a little joy and solidarity for the families who support and support the club”.
“In 2024, we managed to surpass last year’s number of donations, impacting even more people, thanks to the team’s good performance.”
Social impact and partnerships
During the 2024 campaign, the organization included games against Botafogo (15/11), Corinthians (17/11), Paulistano (04/12), São Paulo (06/12), Minas (09/12) and Brasília ( 12/12).
The team scored 243 baskets in total, but, generously, EstrelaBet and R10 Score Vasco da Gama decided to donate 250 baskets.
Raphael Pulga, vice-president of History and Social Responsibility at Club de Regatas Vasco da Gama, declared: “Vasco is a club connected with important social causes.”
He added: “When a sponsor embraces our causes it is even more gratifying to have a partner like that. Last year was already a success and this year, we are very happy to be able to expand the reach of people assisted.”
In 2023, the first edition of the project included the distribution of 150 Christmas baskets, as a result of three games and around 120 baskets converted by athletes.
