Third Annual Dodge for a Cause Tournament Raises $18,550

Perceptive Software’s third annual charity dodgeball tournament surpasses fundraising goal in benefit for the Kansas City chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

SHAWNEE, KANSAS — (14 Apr 2008) Perceptive Software and the Kansas City chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) today announced the 2008 Dodge for a Cause charity dodgeball tournament generated $18,550 for diabetes research. With this year’s record total, Dodge for a Cause has now raised more than $42,000 for JDRF since the tournament’s inception in 2006.

On March 29-30 and April 5-6, sixty-four teams and more than 500 participants squared off at Perceptive Software headquarters, which features an NADA-approved dodgeball court, for a shot at dodgeball glory. After more than 200 games of dodgeball and two weekends of exciting play, team Canoni Seis was crowned the 2008 Dodge for a Cause champion. As tournament champion, the team receives an automatic bid into the NADA Outdoor National Tournament in suburban Chicago on July 19, 2008, eight roundtrip airfare vouchers courtesy of Southwest Airlines and $1,000 for the trip.

“Perceptive Software is thrilled with the result of the 2008 Dodge for a Cause tournament, an annual event we’re honored to host, said Scott Coons, Perceptive Software president and CEO. “Continued excitement and support from the community made the third annual tournament the most successful yet.”

The proceeds from each team’s $250 tournament registration fee, additional donations from several individuals and a $2,500 donation from CentiMark helped push the 2008 Dodge for a Cause donation total beyond the initial goal of $16,000.

“With $18,550 donated, the 2008 Dodge for a Cause event exceeded our wildest expectations,” said Yvonne Miller, Kansas City JDRF Executive Director. “We are thankful that Perceptive Software selected JDRF to support again this year and look forward to future partnerships with the company,” added Miller.

Perceptive Software thanks the following sponsors for their support of Dodge for a Cause and the Kansas City Chapter of JDRF: 810 WHB, Southwest Airlines, Crown Lawncare, Bank Midwest, Moe’s Southwest Grill, Kansas City T-Bones, Kansas City Corporate Challenge, Kansas City Sport & Social Club and Volt Technical Services.
