For the 35th straight year, the Kentuckiana Basketball Officials Association will be accepting donations for KBOA’s Annual Christmas Fund.  Through donations made by KBOA members and Louisville area residents, nearly $75,000 has been collected and shared with more than 160 families.

​

Steve Coffman, retired KBOA member, has been involved in the Christmas Fund every year since its inception. In 1987, the first year of the Christmas Fund, the KBOA collected $806.  The money was donated a local Louisville charity.

​

KBOA members now go Christmas shopping with a family in need so the family can have something that would not be possible without the KBOA’s help, a Christmas holiday with gifts and a great meal.

​

“Going shopping with a family is one of most rewarding things you can do,” says Coffman.  “Being able to help a local family and give them a Christmas they will remember is an indescribable feeling and warms a person’s heart.”

You do not have to be a member of the KBOA to donate and no donation is too small.
