Houston Rockets 10,000 Hugs to Help

The Houston Rockets have announced the launch of a fundraising campaign to assist the three surviving children of Houston residents Joshua and Robin Berry who were killed in a tragic automobile accident on July 2, 2011.

The campaign, which has been tabbed "10,000 Hugs-to-Help," will offer Houstonians the opportunity join fundraising efforts by making monetary donations for the chance to get a hug from Clutch, the team's lovable mascot, at a variety of events planned around the Houston community in the coming weeks. Rockets Chief Executive Officer Tad Brown will join Head Coach Kevin McHale as the first donators to receive hugs at the campaign tip-off event scheduled for Wednesday, July 27 at 2:00 p.m. at the main entrance of Toyota Center.

"This is truly a heartbreaking situation that has left three beautiful children of our community without their parents," said Rockets Owner Leslie Alexander. "Our entire Houston Rockets organization sends condolences to the Berry family for the tragic loss of Joshua and Robin. We are committed to assisting the various fundraising efforts that continue to be planned around our community in order to help provide Peter, Aaron and Willa with the support they will need in order to overcome the physical pain and devastating emotional trauma they have suffered."
