FANS CLUB SPONSORS PROJECT

Sampras t-shirts sold for Gullikson charity

An online Pete Sampras fan club – www.samprasfaz.com – is selling t-shirts to raise money for Pete’s favorite charity, The Tim & Tom Gullikson Foundation.

The shirt, which features a color photo of Pete on the front and career highlights on the back, is being sold for $30, plus shipping and handling. The deadline for ordering the shirt is July 21.

Tim Gullikson was Pete's coach who died of brain cancer. The Tim & Tom Gullikson Foundation was founded in 1995 by tennis professionals Tim and Tom Gullikson and their families after Tim was diagnosed with brain tumors. Tim lost his battle with the disease in May 1996.

Samprasfanz president Joy Parker said, “This year we thought we would offer a t-shirt as incentive to Sampras fans worldwide to donate to this worthy cause. You can view the design of this shirt online at www.samprasfanz.org. Presently Samprasfanz has 60 orders, but our goal is 100 or more. Please help us reach our goal by ordering a shirt! In case you would like to order a shirt but make a larger donation, you can do that as well.”

You may order by sending e-mail to Peteshirt@hotmail.com. Then the fan club will contact you as to where and how to send the money.

Samprasfanz is a Internet fan groupwith approximately 550 members from 60 nations. In the last two years, the club has donated $2,540 to the foundation.
