March Madness is Back (with a Twist)
​
We’re thrilled to announce that March Madness “Brackets for a Cause” is returning (with a twist this year)! This annual fundraiser, held in connection with the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments, will benefit cancer and chronic disease-related charities. Don’t miss this opportunity to play, complete, and win all in the name of supporting some amazing charities.​
Here’s how it works:
This year, for the first time, all Alliant employees are eligible for one free bracket. This is our token of gratitude for the generosity you have shown donating to the Employee Assistance Fund benefiting those affected by the California wildfires.
Additional brackets can be purchased for $10 each.*
Friends, family, clients, carriers, and vendors are also encouraged to join the fun by purchasing brackets for $10 each, so let them know! (Sorry, these individuals are not eligible for the free bracket.)
Brackets will be available for both the men’s and women’s tournaments. You can choose to play one or both!
The deadline to secure your brackets is Thursday, March 13, 2025. Click the “Play Your Brackets” button to claim your free bracket and purchase more to increase your chances of winning.
There is no limit to the number of additional brackets that can be purchased!
All proceeds will be pooled and donated to the winners’ selected charities.
​

-
The top three finishers in both the men’s and women’s brackets will select the cancer or chronic disease-related charity of their choice to receive the following donations:
1st place: 50% of funds raised
2nd place: 30% of funds raised
3rd place: 20% of funds raised
-
Winners will be announced on Monday, April 14, 2025.

Another Way to Win!
If basketball isn’t your thing, you can still participate, have fun, and support this important cause as part of our “Another Way to Win” team:
-
Click on the “Log Your Donation” link and record an individual donation you’ve made to a cancer or chronic disease-related nonprofit organization.
-
For every $10 you donate, you’ll receive one entry into a drawing where Alliant will donate $1,000 to the winner’s charity of choice!
