Disclosure: My father donates his time to this organization, serving on its board of directors. No one on the 3 Point Club’s Executive Committee or Board of Directors receive any kind of financial compensation for the work that they do for the organization, nor did Bourbon Street Shots for the publishing of this post. We simply like to take any opportunity that we can to promote charitable activity such as those organized by the 3 Point Club.

After a highly successful event back in September, the 3 Point Club of New Orleans will host its second fundraiser of the season on Thursday night. In case you missed our first post explaining the Pelicans-themed philanthropic organization, here is its President, Dr. Lance Turkish, explaining who they are and what they do:

The 3 Point Club of New Orleans is a community service organization supporting the New Orleans Pelicans, the sport of basketball, and the Greater New Orleans community. The organization was formed approximately one year ago by a group of Pelicans fans with extensive experience in community service. Recognizing the importance of the New Orleans Pelicans to the community, they decided to create an organization to encourage fan support for the New Orleans Pelicans and promote philanthropic activity related to basketball. The 3 Point Club of New Orleans is a non–profit Louisiana corporation, so the donations to the organization are NOT tax-deductible.
