Trivia Night with Heritage Place
Just a few blocks from campus is a terrific organization working daily to improve the lives of older adults in our community. So when Heritage Place Indy asked us to help out with their Trivia Night fundraiser we said "YES!". Got to help with reading the questions, did a little Q&A, sold raffle tickets, donated BU shirts for prizes and signed a ball for the silent auction. Great evening for a great cause and All Good Dawgs was honored to be a part of it. Learn more about this meaningful organization below!
"Boo-Dawgs" join the Halloween Fun
at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital
A couple of Dawgs, plus a real Dawg--Butler Blue IV--joined patients, family and staff at Peyton Manning Children's Hospital to celebrate Halloween. Games, photo opps, pumpkin painting and in room visits were all a part of the festivities. Pierre and Boden brought T-shirts to hand out to the kids along with a "Good Boy, Blue!" book from our beloved live mascot. Blue in his race car stole the show (and hearts) of everyone at PMCH! Honored to spend time with these kids, families and the hardworking staff--thank you for having us--it was spooktacular!
Summer Fun at the BEST Children's Museum
Doesn't get much better than a summer day at the Indianapolis Children's Museum with the kids from Marion County Commission on Youth (MCCOY). We had a blast with the kids from all the different organizations represented. MCCOY and their partner groups are making a difference here in Central Indiana by championing the positive development of youth. Thanks for letting us join in the fun and helping you make a difference right in our own backyard!
A Kid Again+All Good Dawgs=Fun at Hinkle
Partnered up with A Kid Again Indiana for Hoops Helping Kids at Hinkle in May. AKA impacts so many deserving families and we love welcoming them to Hinkle Fieldhouse! Check out all the great things they do at A Kid Again Indiana
Butler University names Graham Honaker to expanded role of Associate Athletic Director for Development and NIL Strategy
On May 28, an Athletics Development position with enhanced NIL focus begins as Graham Honaker moves into this role from his current role as Director of Principal Gifts for the University. This initiative strengthens the collaboration between All Good Dawgs and Butler Athletics, as we grow opportunities for our student-athletes to pursue NIL possibilities.
Alumni Game Spotlights Charity Partners
& All Good Dawgs Making a Difference
The Men's Basketball Alumni Game provided a perfect opportunity to spotlight our charitable partners while also educating Butler fans about how All Good Dawgs supports our student-athlete Ambassadors.
Welcoming youth and charity representatives from A Kid Again, Inc., Riley Children's Foundation, and Ronald McDonald House of Central Indiana, they were introduced at center court before the tip. Demetrian, one of the Riley Kids the team visited last summer, was even able to come to the game--and never stopped smiling! He got a handshake and photo with Coach Matta before the Dawgs took the court, and a fist bump from John Michael Mulloy postgame.
During timeouts, former players--sporting their All Good Dawgs shirts, of course--competed in contests, giving the Butler faithful a chance to cheer them once again. It was another "great day to be a Dawg"!
Check out the photos and video below--you'll be proud of these Bulldogs!

Ronald McDonald House Recruits Dawgs for a Tall Task
In January, our Bulldogs helped Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Indiana take down and put away all their Christmas decorations throughout the House. They called the right team in to help, as no ladders were required! Our student athlete Ambassadors also brought in a supply of snacks for RMH families to grab as they go about their busy days. Looking forward to more opportunities to partner with this meaningful organization making a difference right here in Central Indiana.
Ho Ho Ho!! It's off to the North Pole the Dawgs go!!
Some very large Bulldog elves celebrated the season with A Kid Again families at the Lift Academy (Republic Airways) near the Indianapolis airport in early December. The hangar was transformed into a winter wonderland as nearly 1,000 excited kids and families enjoyed games, gifts, snacks and of course the highlight of the day--a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus! The players helped entertain the kids by handing out milk and cookies, helping them select gifts in Santa's Workshop, busting some moves on the dance floor, and even copiloting the flight simulator! What a privilege to spend time with these deserving families at such a special time of the year!
Keep Indianapolis Beautiful + Bulldogs = Cleaner, Greener Indy
Twice this past Fall, Butler Men's Basketball joined forces with Keep Indianapolis Beautiful, Inc to plant trees and pick up neighborhood debris and trash. A great opportunity for the Dawgs to embrace their new hometown, the guys rolled up their sleeves and got to work. Planting trees in the Kennedy-King neighborhood, the players even got to plant a tree in front of a home flying a Butler flag--Bulldogs are everywhere! Then a few weeks later, they donned safety jackets, grabbers and a bucket, cleaning up a neighborhood very near the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. "Shooting" 100%, the Dawgs filled up alot of buckets!
A Kid Again teams up with All Good Dawgs for Tailgate Fun
Always a fun time when A Kid Again families gather for an Adventure with All Good Dawgs ambassadors. And on September 9, games, pizza, prizes and football were all a part of the adventure as families tailgated with the players and then caught a Butler Football home game. Here's a highlight video of that day and the inspiring kids that make it so worthwhile! We dare you not to smile!
Bulldogs Visit Riley Children's Hospital
A great time was had by both patients and players alike on July 19, as the Dawgs had fun with some inspiring Riley Kids. Check out the video below and see how teaming up with Riley Children's Foundation created lasting memories.
