Blocks for Bucks
What is Blocks for Bucks?
Blocks for Bucks began in November of 2017, when Phillips Murrah initiated our corporate partnership with the Thunder organization. Helping to improve the community is at the heart of our Firm’s mission, and attorneys and staff at Phillips Murrah are huge Thunder fans. So, the prospect of benefiting the work of Thunder Cares while recognizing our home team’s accomplishments in blocking shots with this exciting and entertaining campaign was irresistible.
The premise of Blocks for Bucks is simple: For each blocked shot that the Thunder forces at home games during the regular season, Phillips Murrah donates $100 to the Thunder Cares Foundation. As the Thunder team racks up blocks throughout the season, video highlights are posted at the Blocks for Bucks page on the Thunder’s website, along with a blocks counter and a running donation amount tally. Phillips Murrah has donated a total of $124,000 to benefit Thunder Cares in seven seasons of our Blocks for Bucks initiative.
“Our partnership with the Oklahoma City Thunder accomplishes two goals,” explained Dave Rhea, Marketing Director at Phillips Murrah. “One, we love supporting the Thunder team, and it’s a delight to have our brand associated with such a celebrated organization. Two, through this partnership, we’re able to help fund the incredible philanthropic work that Thunder Cares does in and around Oklahoma City, which fits perfectly with our commitment to the community.”
